Fats have twice the Calorie content of Carbs so the measure is weak. Also it's the Carbs rather than the Fats that cause weight gain. Much better to keep the Carbs down to avoid BS and weight gain and adjust the Fats and Proteins to keep feeling full and provide balance. Calories are based on very weak science for food input and have been heavily promoted by the diet industry as a simple marketing tool but with little scientific basis. I know you won't agree but have a look round the web to see how the three food groups work in the body and the weakness of  Calories.</p></blockquote><p></p>
