TABLE IV COMPOSITION AND FUEL VALUE OF MOST OF THE FOODS USED IN THE INVALID DIETARY All determinations allow 28.35 grams to the ounce. All calculations are made using the factor 4 calories for protein, 4 calories for carbohydrates, and 9 calories for fats. The materials are measured in standard 8-ounce measuring cups, or tablespoons. The measures are exactly level unless otherwise stated. In calculating beverages containing alcohol, it is necessary to know the percentage of alcohol contained therein. Alcohol has a fuel value of 7 calories per gram. (Whether this heat is available for the needs of the body is still a question.)
