We consume more energy (calories or kilojoules) than we burn up in our daily activity. More than 50 per cent of our adult population is overweight. besity is associated with ae health problems. There are psychological aspects of society’s obsession with thinness but, there are health problems associated with obesity such as heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, gall- bladder disease and others. As people strive to be fash- ionably lean, many people try nutritionally inadequate diets to lose weight too rapidly or to maintain a body weight which is too low to be healthy Losing weight is not magic. Food intake and activity output are the two components in energy bal- ance. When energy intake equals activity output, body weight stays the same. To lose weight, eat less fat and sugar and become more active. To gain, eat more than you use up on activity. Energy intake The energy value of food is measured in calories. The term calorie is now being Sees: by the metric kilo- joule ©. 1Cal.=4.2 kJ I gram of carbohydrate = 4 Cal. (17 kJ. 1 gram of protein = 4 Cal. kJ) 3 1 gram of fat = 9 Cal.
