Is it possible to calculate how many calories are in a food by just having the ingredients?

Would I just take the calorie amout from each ingredient and add it together?

Answer #1

Yes, you would need to find out how much of each ingredient in ounces or grams then add the calories of each item. If you only have the ingredient names of some prepared food but not the weight or amount of each ingredient then I don’t think is possible.

not only the ingredients, but the amount of fat, and serving size.
