In order to maintain healthy and well functioning bodies, we need
a constant intake of fuel. Imagine running a car with no gas? Or trying
to drive a car with the wrong sort of gas. We'd be going nowhere fast,
that's for sure. Same goes for our bodies, where calories equate to our
fuel.
What are calories and what is the relevance to everyday life?
There is no single answer to this question, as the amount of
calorie intake is dependent on your current weight, height, age, gender
and your general level of activity. Moreover, if you are planning to
lose weight or put on weight, again the figures would change. With that
cleared out of the way, let us now see how we can determine the amount
of calories you would need for your individual case.
