Understanding Caloric Needs
A calorie is a unit of energy. This power that the body needs to move and maintain its temperature is called energy. The nutrients we take into our body turn into energy, but after meeting the energy need, the excess calories turn into fat molecules and cause the body to fat.
The essential nutrients our body needs to produce energy; Protein, Carbohydrate, Fat
- Energy = Cal – Kcal
- 1 gr. Carbohydrate = 4 calories
- 1 gr. Protein = 4 calories
- 1 gr. Fat = 9 calories
- 7700 Calorie = 1 Kg
7700 calories is equivalent to 1 kilogram. If you consume 7700 calories, you will gain 1 kilogram. If you spend 7700 calories, you will lose 1 kilogram.
