The saponification value is the amount of base required to saponify a fat sample. For soap making, the triglycerides are highly purified, but saponification includes other base hydrolysis of unpurified triglycerides, for example, the conversion of the fat of a corpse into adipocere, often called grave wax.
If you consume more than you need, some glucose is stored as glycogen in your muscles and liver, where itâs immediately available when your activity level increases. One large carrot has 6.9 grams of total carbohydrates, or 5 percent of your recommended daily intake of 130 grams. Sugars are simple carbohydrates that have one or two molecules of sugar.
The glycemic load takes into consideration both the glycemic index of a food and the amount of carbohydrate in the portion of food eaten. The glycemic load is calculated by multiplying the glycemic index value by the number of grams of carbohydrate, then dividing by 100. Using cooked carrots as an example, 1 cup of cooked carrots provides about 10 grams of carbohydrate, and the glycemic index of cooked carrots is 49.
