"The amount of calories on a nutrition label doesn't mean that is how many calories you're going to get out of it." For someone who counts calories, this is pretty valuable information for me. I never knew that on most things, you don't get all of the calories listed. I always thought that the amount of calories on the nutrition label is exactly how many calories you would get. Thank you so very, very much for making this video. I'm glad I finally know this stuff now because like I said, I had no idea that you don't always get all of the calories that's listed on the label. So now, I definitely have to rethink how I'm going to count my daily caloric intake.
Omg same!! Just this morning i ate a cookie reading num of calorie on the packet! So how are we gonna know how many calories are there in diff chips and all?
Ther is No calorie label that is 100% accurate, they are just estimated and near the accurate one. Still counting calories in very effective to lose weight because the difference will not be SO much
Well since it’s the total amount of calories the food contains you at least know what the maximum calories you will get from it are. So if you’re counting calories in order to stay below a certain amount, you can be certain you’ll get as much as is on the label *or less*. The key being that no matter how your body is wired you can’t get more energy than exists in the food.
I'm a health science teacher and I love showing Ted Ed vids to my class. This vid explains it so well and the animations help keep my 7th graders' attention lol
Wow, I had no idea that calories were so complex. Thank you for sharing this information. I never knew just what a calorie was. You're right, we always hear about them but don't really know what they are so sharing this information is pretty valuable and interesting.
So people are fat because they store too many calories? They are like the Noah of the oncoming famines. While we laugh at them, they are busy preparing for the oncoming disaster. I'm way too high right now.
Thank you for specifying that extracting energy varies from an individual to another and accordingly to the type of food we eat. Many people get this wrong and become obsessed with calorie counts as it is highly advertised by the food industry. It's better to eat 400 kcal of fruit than 200 kcal of industrial chocolate garbage bar. I suggest for the viewers to watch the video on sugar and how it affects the brain, or even the "fed up" documentary.
BombaA A well, yes, but that doesn't have something directly to do with how calories work. Then they could also go into how different kinds of exercise works, different climates, and so forth. Pretty sure it's just meant to be a basic introduction to calories, primarily for young people.
Well I imagine proteins do not give off that many calories as they are not carbohydrates and as such would not give off energy when placed under respiration although proteins may require calories to be digested into amino acids if that is what you are implying ?
Btw 100calories in almonds and 100calories in soft drink is not the same even tho on paper it seems same from math perspective in our body when you consider hormones and everything else it’s not
Great video as always, could you guys also make a video on how calories are determined in food? like how do scientist determine a small apple to have 100 calories with 19.4g carbs 0 protein and 0.05 fat and other nutrients? i hope its not too much to ask
We were told in university, that they are put in a sealed chamber and than burned while measured how many energy is released. (or something in this direction. can't remeber it proberly but I bet wikipedia knows better.)
Key points from the video: A calorie is a measure of how much energy is contained in the food. Your calorie requirement is based on exercise, food type, and the body's ability to process energy.
There's also metabolic efficiency to consider. Your body changes, adapts to whatever you are doing with it. So the more you physically do, the more efficient your body becomes. This presents a large problem for the media that wants to sell you diet garbage. The media likes to tell you the exact opposite of how your body works, saying that larger people have slower metabolism. This is flatly false. A basic physics equation W = Fs (work equals force over distance). The more something weighs, the more force it takes to move it over the same distance given a specific interval of time. What this means is that large people require more calories to do the same amount of work as smaller people, and thus, they have to have a higher metabolic rate. An athlete can utilize smaller amounts of calories to do the same amount of work because their body has physiologically changed to become more efficient. That being said, chemically there is a *HUGE* monkey wrench in the works called hormonal state. The balance of hormones like testosterone, estrogen, cortisol and epinephrine can drastically change metabolism. Estrogen is a real killer, it promotes fat storage, and fat storage in turn.. produces more estrogen. Cortisol (caused by emotional and physical stress) enables the dreaded belly fat storage. And here's the kicker, with enough testosterone, you can burn your fat stores, build muscle and you don't require as much work and calories to do it. In short, there's a whole lot to this that the diet industry tries to make you ignore. They push diuretics (and call it cleanse) which stresses your kidneys, and any weight loss is water weight. They add stimulants too (and say it gives you energy). Here's the kicker, they use caffeine as their active ingredient. That doesn't work because: 1. Your liver and kidneys "cleanse", and they don't need anything special to do it. 2. Water weight is needed, your body is 55%-75% water and fluctuates frequently. 3. These are unregulated supplements, quality, purity, and consistency are *not legally mandated.* Recently some supplements have been analyzed and found that they do not contain what they advertize. well.blogs.nytimes.com/2015/02/03/new-york-attorney-general-targets-supplements-at-major-retailers/?_r=0
"A basic physics equation W = Fs (work equals force over distance)" that's incorrect. W = force x distance. Not force over distance. "The more something weighs, the more force it takes to move it over the same distance given a specific interval of time" That is correct except for the time part. Work has nothing to do with time, what you're confusing it with is Power. P = W/T (power is work done over time). We can replace Work with F*D so we get P = F*D/T and then we can replace distance over time with speed and you get Power = Force * Speed. Everything else you said was correct I just had to nitpick on the physics and math lol.
@@Caaro99 I would disagree with you. He said work is equal to force over a distance. This is correct. Force applied over a distance is equal to work. More specifically, it is the dot product of the two vectors - distance and force. So when they are in the same direction it is Force multiplied by the distance.
The way he explained the answer to my question that my biological teacher failed to answer was brilliant," Is the calorie in bio as same as the one in physics?"
biological teacher and biology teacher is completely different (the former being incorrect)...and the answer is yes idk what your bio teacher was struggling to answer
This is very informative. Clearly paints picture as why as we age our calorie intake should reduce since we are less active. Furthermore explains the importance of excercise.
Calories is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of water from 14.5°C to 15.5°C. It's basically a unit of energy mostly used for heat energy.
Oh my, this is a very beneficial video! Thanks a lot, I've never known before that the number of calories written might not be the same with the number of calories our body will receive. Around 2 years ago, I used to count calories for almost half a year. Together with moderate exercise, I lost 7 kg. However, once I stopped maintaining a healthy lifestyle, I gain backed 10 kg and it was dreadful. Now I'm trying to get back on track again. This time I'm not gonna count calories. Instead of that, I'm eating more mindfully and trying to become more active in daily life. :')
Valentina Olave heyy there not my place to pry but how’s it going? we can hug it out, I hope you are able to eat something, even if it’s small snacks that you enjoy 💕
Actually, im pretty sure its the taste and sugar or something that made him want to eat more pizza, like how when someone smokes a cigar, they feel like doing it more, leading to addiction. *_like how i freaking use the internet and my own phone_*
The video should have also mentioned Calorie means one kilo calories. Some products mention energy values in kilo calories instead of Calories (with a capital C). Not everyone knows the difference and may end up thinking that a product has 1000 times the usual calories
Does anybody know that "joule" is the metric unit of energy? Earlier in my life, I use calorie, which converts to approximately 4.184 joules. I have learned on the internet that outside of the United States, joule is the medium measurement of energy, not the calorie. For instance, 200 calories converts to 836.8 joules, or by rounding it to the nearest ones: 837 joules. That is a good lesson about teaching people how to be very precise with eating food that has contains joules of energy.
João Victor Rocha yes, in EXTREMELY rare cases, people do actually have a legit reason for being obese. For the 99.9% of the rest of them, they need to eat less, and work out more. Where's all the obese starving African children?
It's amazing how the average person has about 12 years of education and still don't understand basic personal finance and basic nutrition. Meanwhile everyone's an expert on pythagorean theorem, the Capulets & Montagues and what every politician did/said in the 17th and 18th centuries.
2:50 is misleading. The labels DO account for accessibility of calories. They just don't account for NET calories. If a human can only get 10% of the calories available in a food, the label will give that number. It will not give a number that deducts the cost of digestion from the overall calorie input.
i was literally taught somewhere that excess calories build up like honeycombs in your body which is a good way to look at it. you can burn away the honey in the honeycomb but if you have too much honey your body has to make more honeycombs to store it in thus getting your body to become larger
I like to convert calories into Jules and then see how many weights I could lift to a certain height with that amount of energy, to make calories more understandable. After having heard that the energy required to access the chemical energy in the food can differ, which I guess of course it can, the direct conversion probably doesn’t apply.
Correction: one calorie is defined as to raise one gram of water one degree Celsius
6 ปีที่แล้ว +1
They obviously meant kilocalories, as indicated by the basal metabolic rates suggested for both women and men (2000 and 2500 respectively) earlier in the video.
The Calorie people refer to for foods is different than the calorie you mean. It's also called large calorie just like the video said. So in fact the video is correct.
I am afraid you are mistaken. 1 caliorie -> raise the temperature of one GRAM of water by one degree Celsius at a pressure of one atmosphere. 1 kcal --> KG of water
Not true, here in the Netherlands we use the metric system too and yet in all food packages you see calories beside kilojoules. Imo calories are easier and should be kept

so to find how many calories something has, you have to harness the energy stored and turn that into thermal energy. How?
Essentially you burn the object and put it close to a water container and measure how much the water's temperature rise

yeah, if there’s not a lot of honey the honeycombs will burn down because the body realizes it doesn’t need them anymore ^^

One Calorie, capital C, not calorie. Also known as kcal, or kilocalorie, which is 1kg.

Thanks for this brief definition ❤
“GO EAT MORE FOOD! WE NEED TO MAKE A SUN ON EARTH!!!”
very well explained!
I like to convert calories into Jules and then see how many weights I could lift to a certain height with that amount of energy, to make calories more understandable.
After having heard that the energy required to access the chemical energy in the food can differ, which I guess of course it can, the direct conversion probably doesn’t apply.
A fine idea. The unfortunate nature of reality has stricken it down, but a fine idea.
Ok but why are the animations SO CUTE????!!!!?!!
Correction: one calorie is defined as to raise one gram of water one degree Celsius
They obviously meant kilocalories, as indicated by the basal metabolic rates suggested for both women and men (2000 and 2500 respectively) earlier in the video.
Yes... But he was referring to the Kilocalorie or "Large" Calorie.
Just a simple fact, 1 Calorie = 1kcal (this is the small calorie)
1 calorie (small) = 4.184 so the specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g •C°
This video is supposed to be so informative and helpful but it ends up very confusing
The only thing I understood from this video is that calories provide energy :|
If this level of explanation is too confusing, the problem is on your end.
M.D Records this is a school assignment for me and I don’t get the questions cus this video is so confusing to me
Cristian Țițeica - Please read my comment and see if it helps you understand calories.
tokyyo - Yes the video was confusingly fast paced. Please check my comment and tell me what you think. I’d appreciate it!
I am usually a fan of these videos, but this one left mich to be desired.
1 calorie is the amount of energy to raise 1gram of water by 1 Degree celsius.
Not 1 kg of water.
Yeah i was about to say that
it also depends what degree water is.
The Calorie people refer to for foods is different than the calorie you mean. It's also called large calorie just like the video said. So in fact the video is correct.
Exactly... Generally it's considered as rise from 13-14° Celsius
Large calorie refers to 1kg of water small calorie to 1gram
Thank you, Addison!
I am afraid you are mistaken. 1 caliorie -> raise the temperature of one GRAM of water by one degree Celsius at a pressure of one atmosphere. 1 kcal --> KG of water
That's why he said a large Calorie, not just a calorie
Correction to 1:01 Not one kg of water but one gram only. 1 calorie will raise 1 gram of water 1 degree Celsius.
You US-Americans should really learn to use the term kilocalorie, because that is what you mean, not calorie.
Matthias Muster I can have 9,000 calories just from a cookie
Us US-Americans, many of us at least, understand a calorie is really a Kilocalorie, we just don't use the term.
Greatly explained!!
I being a 10 yr old, learnt a lot
Anyone else 10 yrs old over here?
Hmm, so you are a 10-year-old who created a TH-cam account 11 years ago, very interesting
In Australia the calorie is being replaced by the kilojoule.
Do you know why?
The kilojoule is part of SI, the official metric system used by most of the world. That's why we are changing.
Ashbury2193 Cool, thanks for the info!
Yasin Omidi That’s incorrect. Watts are defined as Joules/seconds
Not true, here in the Netherlands we use the metric system too and yet in all food packages you see calories beside kilojoules. Imo calories are easier and should be kept
Great animation.
