    You could math it out to get close - if you truly trust the nutritional info that is missing calories.

    Carbs & protein 4 cal per gram.
    Fat 9 cal per gram.

    As you add these to the food database for your use - please do NOT make them public accessible since you do not have accurate info.

    If this is recipe stuff then you should add up the nutritional labels of what is being used in it.
