This article is going to tell you a little about nutritional values of foods - in a way where a single food is chosen, and then the nutritional values of foods is given about this type of food, in its different forms.
The thing I have chosen is the potato. First of all, I'm going to give you an example of the potato, which is very commonly eaten - one that has been put in a microwave, after been cooked, having been salted.
As you might guess, there are no fats, whatsoever - and no cholesterols. Ten percent is made up of carbohydrates. There is four grams proteins (out of 100g). There is a lot of Vitamin-C - at twenty six percent - and iron's making up a third of the potato. This food is good for your bones, as calcium's representative of 1/20 of the entire potato.
Did you know that ashes is over 2% of a 100g potato's weight? Fibers make up 5.5% of the weight.
How about if your potato's been put in the freezer, bioler, you did drain it and it is whole? In the case that any of those things are true, these are the values. Obviously, there are no fats in it. Carbs make up five percent - there is less proteins, than on the previous example, at two percent. No cholesterols are existant in this, and sodium's to a much lesser degree, eleven percent an ingredience. Nutritionally, out of what the previous example had to offer, this one seems to be overall lacking. Iron's only five percent, to thirty three, Vitamin-C is down at sixteen, calcium's down at only one.

We all love our baked potato, don't we? Well... if you do, and you want to keep eating them often, perhaps you should close your eyes, instead of reading the following... Well, actually, it's not as bad as it could be. Yes, there is not only one gram calory in this - instead, there is almost two hundred. But... The iron's an ingredience to a high degree than it was in any of the other examples, and any other way that is a potato's used - at an astounding thirty nine percent of the total content. Vitamin-C is at almost a fourth of content, twenty three %.
