Sebastian says that you can use math in many ways in nutrition and has importance.he said that nutritions use math to calculate weight loss/gain, body fat percentages , diet plans, properties in food.
For example there are equations you can use the formula to calculate your weight loss percentage is: lbs lost divided by starting weight. Then, multiply the result by . ((5lbs / 150lbs) * 100 = -3.33%) So, if your starting weight is lbs and you lost lbs, you’ve lostof your body weight.
The nutrition label on a 20 ounce energy drink says there are 110 calories in a serving. That’s simple if a serving is 20 ounces. But, the label says the bottle equal 2.5 servings. If you drink the whole bottle—which most of us do—how many calories did you consume?
You have high blood pressure and need to limit sodium to less than 2,000 milligrams a day. A can of soup has 650 milligrams of sodium in a serving. The catch—one serving equals 1 cup and you usually eat the whole can, which has 2 cups.How much sodium do you have left to eat for the rest of the day?
Hint: Calculate the amount of sodium in the can of soup.
