COUNTING CALORIES Background
All foods contain energy, although the amount of potential energy stored will vary greatly depending on the type of food. When we eat food, our bodies convert the stored energy to chemical energy, allowing us to do work. The energy values of food are measured by the Calorie, with a capital C. A Calorie is equal to 1,000 calories or 1 kilocalorie (kcal).
