So you don't get the performance from the octane, it comes from the engine, which now requires a harder to ignite fuel. Example: My GTI requires 91. If I use 87, it senses ignition and retards the timing, and that's what makes it slower.
The Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2010, (PDF) recommend that healthy people get 50â65% of their calories from carbohydrates. A study posted on the American Diabetes Association (ADA) Web site agrees. For a woman eating a below-average 2,000 calories a day, 50â65% would be 250â325 grams of carb a day. The Dietary Guidelines call for âa balanced diet that includes six one-ounce (28.3 g) servings of grain foods each day.â This would mean 170 grams of carbohydrate from grains alone each day.
Save. A diabetic's daily carbohydrate intake varies based on age, weight, gender, activity level and goal. An individual diabetic's needs can also vary, if he is to be active one day, but resting the next. Roughly half of all calories should come from carbohydrates, regardless of the day's carbohydrate total.ave.
