Without a question, total calorie consumption is an important piece of the pie when it comes to losing weight, building muscle, and optimizing performance. However, NOT ALL CALORIES ARE CREATED EQUAL. Quality Matters, and if your sole focus is on total calorie consumption and not as much on quality you are missing the boat entirely. In this episode we dive into how the body recognizes calories, Thermic Effects of Food, how certain food choices can turn on and turn off genes and change your genetic expression, how foods can up-regulate and down-regulate different hormones, food choices on satiation, adverse effects of poor food choices, and ultimately how calories are important but QUALITY needs to be an essential focus and piece of the pie when optimizing your health, performance, and body composition in the long run.
