📌A calorie is a measure of energy expenditure and stored energy. The calories referred to in diet (calories eaten) and exercise (calories burned) are kilocalories (kcal).

📌One kilocalorie is equal to the amount of heat that will raise the temperature of one kilogram of water by one degree Celsius at sea level. One kilocalorie is equal to 4186.8 joules and 1000 calories (small calories) as referred to in science labs for heat energy.

📌Understanding Calories in Food
Calories in food are grouped as fats, alcohol, carbohydrates, and proteins. Different nutrients have more or fewer calories packed into the same weight (higher or lower calorie density). Nutrition labels in the U.S. use these rules of thumb:1

Alcohol: 1 gram of alcohol has 7 calories (kcal)
Carbohydrate: 1 gram of carbohydrate (sugars and starches) has 4 calories (kcal)
Fat: 1 gram of fat has 9 calories (kcal)
Protein: 1 gram of protein has 4 calories (kcal)
Although fiber is a carbohydrate, it is not easily digested by the body, so calories from fiber are estimated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to be 1.5 calories for 1 gram.

By checking the nutrition facts label on food, you can see how many calories in a serving come from each of these sources.

📌Calories and Weight Loss
A pound of body fat stores roughly 3500 calories (kcal) although this number is an estimate. To lose a pound of fat in a week, a general guidelines is to reduce your calorie intake by approximately 500 fewer calories (kcal) per day than you expend in metabolism and exercise.2 However, it is important to take this guide with a grain of salt. There are other factors (in addition to the simple calories in/calories out equation) that can influence weight loss.

📌The number of calories that you burn in a day includes basal metabolic rate calories burned just to keep the body functioning, plus additional calories burned in physical activity. Your body will burn calories to maintain body temperature, breathe, circulate blood, digest food, eliminate wastes, build and repair cells and tissues, and maintain brain and nervous system activity.

📌The range of daily calorie burning is from 1600 calories (kcal) for a sedentary woman or an older person to 2800 calories (kcal) for active men, very active women, and teenage boys. You can check your calories burned per day with a calculator based on your height, weight, age, and activity level.
