Identify the physiological fuel value for the following: The physiological fuel value for carbohydrate is: The physiological fuel value for protein is: The physiological fuel value for fat is:

The physiological fuel value for carbohydrate and protein is four

The physiological fuel value for fat is nine

For Carbohydrates = 4 Kcal/gram

For Fat = 9Kcal/gram

For Protein = 4Kcal/gram

Explanation:

The Physiological fuel value is based on the heat of combustion of the feed composed of carbohydrate, fat and protein. The sample can be worked out using appropriate factors.

The calorie value of any given food is dependent on the number of grams of each of the energy nutrients the food contains.
