Where the calories come from
Calories come from three macronutrients: protein and carbohydrate at 4 kcal per gram, fat at 9 kcal per gram. For sea bass (cooked) the split is:
- Protein: 23.6 g × 4 = 95 kcal — 80% of calories
- Carbohydrates: 0 g × 4 = 0 kcal — 0% of calories
- Fat: 2.6 g × 9 = 23 kcal — 20% of calories
- Most of the energy in sea bass (cooked) comes from protein (80% of calories).
- With 23.6 g of protein per 100 g it counts as a high-protein food.
- That is 19.1 g of protein per 100 kcal — a useful number when protein is your target.
- For 200 kcal you can eat about 160 g.
What actually changes the number
Sea bass is 124 kcal per 100 g cooked, a lean fish that is usually served with the skin crisped in oil. Count the skin and the oil if you eat them; the flesh itself is a light portion.
How accurate are these numbers?
The values on this page are reference averages from the USDA FoodData Central database (SR Legacy release), measured on samples of sea bass as sold and prepared in the United States. Your portion will differ: produce varies by variety and ripeness, meat by cut and trim, and anything cooked by the fat and water it gained or lost.
For most foods the per-100 g figure is reliable to within about 10%. The larger uncertainty is almost always the weight of what is on your plate and the cooking fat you cannot see — the two things worth checking before you worry about the database.
