A client takes 30 grams of carbohydrates, 4 grams of protein, and 10 grams of fat.
As we know
1 gram carbohydrate contained 4 Kcal
1 gram protein contained 4 Kcal
1 gram fat contained 9 Kcal
So, if clients takes 30 grams of carbohydrates then,
So, if clients takes 4 grams of protein then,
So, if clients takes 10 grams of fats then,
Now, total intake is 120 + 16 + 90 = 226 Kcal
