Obesity and Calorie


The word 'Obesity' is always associated with Calorie. It is the extra calories that get deposited in our body. A Calorie (with a capital C) is a unit that measures the amount of energy in foods. It is also known as kilo calorie and is equal ti 1000 calories (with a small c). A calorie is the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Centigrade. An adult might eat up to 3,000 Calories a day. Eating too many Calorie that the body does not use for energy may make you fat.

Now when it comes to burning this extra Calorie that is stored in our body, we come to get different advises from different sources. The most common advise is to get a device that can help you burn your extra Calorie. But we often forget that this can be done by simple things like walking, playing or even dancing. I would like to mention few of them and the amount of Calories burn. So stop wasting your hard earn money.
