50-60% of daily caloric intake
Main function & caloric intake of Lipids - Correct answer-storage of energy; 9Kcal; less
than 30 % of daily caloric intake
Main function & caloric intake of Protein - Correct answer-structure; 4Kcal; or 15-25% of
daily caloric intake
3 main catagories of carbohydrates - Correct answer-monosaccharides, disaccharides,
