True
O False
Explain the following statement: Cellulose is an importantpart of a healthy diet but it is not a nutrient
Food faddists often make exaggerated claims about certain types of food. For instance, some promoters of weight-loss diets claim that carbohydrate (for example, rice) is harmful and should be omitted from the diet or intake of carbohydrate significantly reduced. There is a saying that “fats burn in the fire of carbohydrates”. What is the meaning of this? What would be the effect of a significant reduction in carbohydrate intake on the utilization of fats for energy? Cite the biochemical mechanisms that support your answer.

By convention, one Calorie (C), with a capital C, that is used for food is equal to one kilocalorie.
