CLICK HERE to see the nutrient chart If I take 100 grams of coconut then how can I physically have fats in that which are 150% ?
Its physically understandable that coconut has 5% carbohydrates that is every 100 gm of coconut has 5 gm carbohydrate. But what's the physical meaning of coconut having 150% fats ? How many grams fats are there in 100 gm coconut ?
I'm assuming you're looking at the nutritional values.
If it says the coconut has 150% fats this does NOT mean that a coconut is 150% fat, rather the coconut contains 150% of your daily recommended intake of fats.
That is (this is probably not correct), if you are recommended to eat 50 g of fat every day, a coconut may contain 75 g of fat (150% of 50 g). HOWEVER, the coconut itself may weigh 500 g.
Just remember a percentage on a nutrition label always refers to percent of recommended daily values NOT a part of the actual food item. Therefore you can have 50% for fats, 50% for carbohydrates, as well as 50% for proteins, even though they add up to more than 100%.
