Experts: Calories Are NOT All Equal

Is a calorie from soda equal to a calorie from olive oil? Certainly not, and many experts now agree:

TIME: You Asked: Are All Calories Created Equal?

Being off by just 100 calories a day could add up to a hundred pounds over a lifetime.
– Professor David Ludwig
If calorie counting would have been the answer, then low-fat foods would have been helpful in keeping diabetes, obesity and other modern diseases at bay. Instead they’ve failed miserably.

Swapping healthy fats such as fish, eggs and olive oil for low-fat, low-calorie foods is simply a mistake. Healthy foods with natural fats not only give us plenty of nutrients, they also keep us satisfied (which low-fat yoghurt and cereal never will).
