I read that a calorie is a calorie is a calorie. 1000 calories of cookies is the same as 1000 calories from healthy options. It's still 1000 calories
BUT, it also said our bodies process calories differently depending on the source.
For example:
A slice of white bread and a slice of whole grain bread have about the same calories. But our bodies are more efficient at processing the whole grains compared the the refined grains of white bread.
Meaning that even though the same caloric intake is had, some could still lose weight due to the efficient processing of calories from healthy sources.
Does anyone know any more about this?
