Question

Explain why a food that has more calories will give a person more energy than a food that has fewer calories. Why is consuming natural sugar not necessarily any better for your body than consuming sugar from corn syrup or white sugar?

Answer 1

One of calories ingredients is carbohydrates, which are organic compounds that releases energy. Consuming natural sugar isn't always the right choice, since there aren't a specific amount of it in everyday fruits.

Answer 2

1. The more calories a food has, the more energy it will give the body. The fewer calories a food has, the less potential it has to give the body energy.

2. The body doesn’t distinguish between the types of sugars that you consume; it uses sugars in the same way because most sugars are still processed from natural ingredients.
