This is third part of my blog on Simple Formula for Healthy Life-LCLW. In this blog I will provide you more information about nuts, fruits & drinks how much Calories they have.




4. Nuts


  
They are a great source of protein and healthy fats. Eaten in moderation due to the density of fat calories, eat in raw.

5. Fruits



 Fruit Calories are made up of mostly simple carbohydrates, some proteins, and typically very little fat - of course there are exceptions such as avocado. The calories in fruit are among the most beneficial that can be consumed. They are rich in vitamins and anti-oxidants.



 6. Alcoholic Drinks



Alcohol is very high in calories, in fact it's not far off the calories in fat, therefore cutting down on alcohol is a start in reducing total calories consumed.




In the end we can see Relationship- Fat and Calories

One pound of body fat is equal to approximately 3500 calories.

Weight Loss

To lose one pound per week, you might decrease your required calories by 500 per day.
(-500 calories X 7 days per week = -3500 calories)

Weight Gain

To gain one pound per week, you might increase your required calories by 500 per day.
(500 calories X 7 days per week = 3500 calories
