Balance Energy
The food and drink we intake in our daily diet provides the energy and nutrients we need to stay healthy and energetic. our personal calorie needs vary according to our weight, age, gender and activity level, but “on average” women need about 2000 calories a day to maintain their energy balance and keep their weight stable. Men need about 2500 a day. The energy content of stored body fat is about 3500 calories, so a 500 calorie deficit is needed each day in order to lose one pound. The safest way to create an energy deficit is by reducing calorie intake and at the same time increasing energy expenditure.
