I just ate 3.5 cups of dark red kidney beans.
This contains 28 grams of fiber.
>dietary material containing substances such as cellulose, lignin, and pectin, which are resistant to the action of digestive enzymes.
Riddle me this /fit/:
385 calories, 66.5 grams of carbs and 24.5 grams of protein
66.5 * 4 + 25.5 *4 = 368 (numbers given by mfp)
Now of those 66.5 grams of carbs, 28 are fiber which can't be digested, and thus can't give me calories. So really it should be 38.5 * 4 + 25.5 * 4 = 256 calories.
So shouldn't they advertise 256 calories instead of 385?

Haha digestivelet!

Dietary fiber = soluble fiber + insoluble fiber
Soluble fiber= soluble fiber digested by bacteria + soluble fiber not digestede by bacterie
Soluble fiber digested by bacteria = 2 cals/g
Insoluble fiber= 0 cals/g.
Now figure out how much of the dietary fiber is soluble and how much of that is digested by intestinal bacteria to determine the caloric value of fiber in red kidney beans.
