Calories in a spider??

Depends on the size of the spider

I have sleep apnoea and have to wear a mask to sleep. Does that mean my diet is lacking in protein as I'm not getting the required number of spiders?

You might want to supplement your spider intake.

Good morning FunkySpunky,

I'm sorry that all of these people are not taking your question seriously.

The sort of spiders that you would be likely to inadvertently swallow will contain a truly negligible number of calories - in most instances less than one. Considering that there are about 3500 calories in a pound of fat, you would need to sleep for 500 years to gain a pound!

Other arachnids might contain higher caloric content, such as the solifugae or so-called camel spider.

However, a spider on the order of eight inches long is not something that you would be likely to inadvertently swallow in your sleep.

Sincerely,
DC

Another important question that arises from this: If I swallow a camel spider in my sleep, do I need to log the water from it's humps?

Is eating a camel spider how you catch camel toe?
