Whats the difference between a fat calorie and a regular calorie?
Yes, you still could get fat. A calorie is a calorie. Too many calories turn into fat. Fad diets (like Atkins), really aren’t good for you because you’re cutting out things your body actually needs. For example, Atkins restricts carbs.Your body needs carbs to function properly. The best diet is a balanced one. All excess calories do turn into fat, however getting a good balance of fat, protein, and carbs is the best. That’s why it’s good to not have too much (or too little) of something.
