WHAT IS CALORIES ?

All food contains calories. Calories are a measurement of energy from food for your body .

ENERGY BALANCE

•Energy balance is how ‘energy in’ and ‘energy out’ work together. 

•‘Energy in’ is calories taken into the body through food and drink. 

•‘Energy out’ is calories being used by the body. 

ENERGY BALANCE

•Some foods give you more energy than others. 

•It’s important to eat foods from the different food groups so that your body gets the energy it needs. 

•Some activities use up more energy than others. For example, doing 20 jumping jacks gets your heart beating faster than cleaning your room. Jumping up and down is a high-energy activity, and cleaning your room is a low-energy activity.
