What is a good way to calculate calories in products?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Laboratory analysis: You cannot do this at home. You have to trust the calorie count on the label of foods. Caloric content is determined by combustion of the food in a device called a parr bomb which is a laboratory device to precisely get this result.
