General Questions
What is a ‘calorie’?
•
A calorie is a unit of measure for energy. One calorie is equal to the
amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water
by 1 degree Celsius. By convention in nutrition and exercise, the term
‘calories’ really represents ‘kilocalories’, or 1000 calories. In principle,
one has to create a 3500 kcal deficit between energy intake (that is,
calories from food) and energy expended in order to lose 1 pound of
body-fat (or 7800 kcal per kg).
