The nutrition facts panel on HERSHEY'S SUGAR FREE labels will show carbohydrate content that is comparable to regular confectionery counterparts. However, HERSHEY'S SUGAR FREE products use sugar alcohols as a substitute for sugar. The sugar alcohols are absorbed and metabolized by the body in a different way than sugar. As a result, their carbohydrate exchange value is about half that of sugar. See similar questions...

A pound of muscle can burn between 35 to 50 calories per day (depending on whether you use it or not) while an equal amount of fat (1 pound) only burns 2 - 3 calories a day. Another way to state this is: In order to keep a pound of muscle on your body you must consume 35 - 50 calories or it will begin to diminish. But, all a pound of fat needs to stay 'healthy' is between 2 - 3 calories. See similar questions...

The simplest way is to find the number of calories per serving is to divide the number of calories from fat by the total calories. If the label shows how many calories from fat, then just divide. For example, a food with 150 calories per serving, 25 from fat = 17% calories from fat (25 ÷ 150 = 16.67) A very simple method to find foods under 10% calories from fat is to only consume those that have one gram of fat, or less, per hundred calories.
