Consider a 96 kg adult, who is overweight. Weight loss would improve their general health and wellbeing. If 35 % of the body mass of this 96 kg adult consists of TGs (in adipose tissue), what is the total available fuel reserve, in kJ and kcal, in the form of TGs? 2. This 96 kg adult decides to begin a starvation diet to lose weight. They aim to reduce their weight to 75 kg, which will be a weight loss of 21 kg. If the only source of nutrient energy for this 96 kg adult is the oxidation of fatty acids stored at TGs, how long (in days plus hours) will it take for this person to lose 21 kg of their body weight under starvation conditions? The daily energy expenditure for this 96 kg adult is 8700 kJ. This is equivalent to the recommended Australian average daily energy intake of 8700 kJ. 3. Calculate the weight loss in kg/day under such starvation conditions if the oxidation of fatty acids stored as TGs were the only source of energy?

Consider a 96 kg adult, who is overweight. Weight loss would improve their general health and wellbeing. If 35 % of the body mass of this 96 kg adult consists of TGs (in adipose tissue), what is the total available fuel reserve, in kJ and kcal, in the form of TGs? Assume energy value of TGs = 37.4 kJ/g 1 kJ = 0.239 kcal
The body mass index (BMI) of a 1.6-m tall woman who normally has 3 large slices of cheese pizza and a 400 ml Coke for lunch is 30. She now decides to change her lunch to quarter kilograms of watermelons, oranges or apples plus a scope of ice creams. Assuming that the deficit in the calorie intake is made up by burning body fat, determine how long it will take for the BMI of this person to drop to 20. Use the data in the text for calories and take the metabolizable energy content of 1 kg of body fat to be 33,100 kJ. Assuming that one slice of pizza contains 350 calories and 200 ml coke contains 87 calories.
Sascha is 37 years old. She has been maintaining the same healthful body weight throughout her adult life. She recently began drinking a glass of wine with dinner every evening (5 ounces; 125 Calories) but has made no other changes in her diet or level of physical activity. 1. Accurding to the energy balance equation, how much weight should Sascha gain if she continues to drink this amount of wine each night for one year? 2. Do you predict that she will actually gain this much weight? Explain why or why not.
A 45 year old Jenny wanted to determine if she is taking enough food to gain weight. She currently weighs 55kg and takes in 2,000kcal per day. The following are her activities: (1) sleep for 7 hours (2) running for 2 hours with an estimated energy expenditure of 4.5kcal/min (3) working for 10 hours with an average energy expenditure of 3.5kcal/min, and (4) rest for the remaining time with an estimated time of 1.5kcal/min.

Every question has to be answered in 4-5 sentences 1. Why would someone argue, using the information about metabolism and anabolism of fat, that fat is the most fattening for the body and that a low-fat diet would be the best approach to lose weight? HINT: this is about metabolism and not just calories per gram. 2. Discuss the following: Define Metabolism in relation to energy production and food intake. Define and discuss catabolism and anabolism What is ATP? Why is it called the energy currency of the cell? Be specific. 3. Carnitine has been "sold" as a fat burner supplement. Explain WHY someone might use this information based on fat metabolism. Why is this information incorrect?
