Calories Aren’t Created Equal
Where are your calories coming from? It matters what type of food your calories come from. For example, a candy bar of 200 calories is not the same as eating 200 calories worth of cooked brown rice or a yogurt topped with fruits and nuts. There’s more to food than calories. Think about all the things that a particular food brings to the table, like vitamins, minerals and fiber to name a few.
