Do you know how we calculate the calories that are inside the food?
There are actually different scientific methods to measure it.
One of them uses a bomb calorimeter - a special chamber where food is burned and the energy released is measured.
Another method uses chemical analysis to determine the amounts of protein, fat, carbohydrates and other components, which are then used to calculate the calorie content.
So, the calories on your food label aren’t just a random number there’s real science behind them.
