Can u explain nutrition facts?!


Question: The bag of chips says. serv. size: 1oz.
servings: 5 1/2
calories : 140
fat. cal :60

What I don't understand is if I eat a whole bag of that, how much calories am I eating? Does it goes by calories or fat cal? and... what does the serving size means?

everything you need to know is at the top. just times the calories by the "servings per container" or bag or whatever you have. and then that's how many calories you're eating.
the serving size just means how much they assume you're going to eat in one sitting (which is usually never true btw.)
so that whole bag of chips would be 770 calories.

Nutrition is the provision, to cells and organisms, of the materials necessary (in the form of food) to support life. Many common health problems can be prevented or alleviated with good nutrition.

The diet of an organism refers to what it eats. Dietitians are health professionals who specialize in human nutrition, meal planning, economics, preparation, and so on. They are trained to provide safe, evidence-based dietary advice and management to individuals (in health and disease), as well as to institutions.

Poor diet can have an injurious impact on health, causing deficiency diseases such as scurvy, beriberi, and kwashiorkor; health-threatening conditions like obesity and metabolic syndrome, and such common chronic systemic diseases as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and osteoporosis

if there are 5 1/2 servings in the bag then just multiply the calories by 5 1/2

the fat calories means out of the total amt. of calories, 60 of them are fat calories b/c there are diff. kindz of calories

in total you are eating 770 calories
out of those 770 calories, 330 of them are fat calories

the serving size means that they suggest you should only eat an ounce of chips in one eating

Hope this helps!!
Enjoy your chips!!
