“Know Your Calories”

Calories come from the macronutrients – protein, fat & carbohydrates.

Protein and carbohydrates have 4 calories per gram, while fat is a lot more calorie-dense, with 9 calories per gram! 400 calories of vegetable, fruits, etc fill up your stomach, while 400 calories of fat (oil, butter, ghee) or meat (protein + fat) does not occupy much of your stomach.

Always have a healthy mix of protein, fat, and carbohydrates
