Calorie Counter


Calorie (commonly also expressed as kilocalorie) is the energy obtained from all foodstuffs - whether solid or liquid. The only liquid food that does not provide us energy is water.
Calories fuel our body and help us to perform our day-to-day activities. However, consuming more calories than our body needs, whether they come from carbohydrates, protein or fat will be stored as fat in the body, which wil ultimately end up as weight gain.
Shown below is a comprehensive calorie counter inclusive of the caloric and fat count of basic ingredients which are found on the kitchen shelf in every household. The ingredients have been divided into small groups. To know the caloric count of your favourite food, all you have to do is look up this dairy and the answer is in front of you. So go ahead and discover the nutritional facts!!!
