In today’s episode we are joined by Elly McLean to answer the question: are all calories created equal? You will learn how the concept of a calorie began, how energy is stored in the body, all about total daily energy expenditure, non-exercise activity thermogenesis, the role of exercise and wearable tracking devices, the thermic effect of food and so much more. This is a nuanced conversation that extends far beyond the general consensus that a calorie is simply a calorie. Let’s take a closer look.
