Well, sure, but those calories on the label are calculated by burning the components in a machine and measuring the heat output. The human body isn't going to convert the input food at 100%. That percent is going to depend on a lot of factors!

- Blackthorn 9y agoYou're assuming a constant factor there that isn't necessarily constant.
- NikolaeVarius 9y agoSo? Are we assuming these things are 100% off consistently? If what you care claiming is true, there should be wide swaths of people on bodybuilding forums raising hell about how inaccurate nutrition labels are. But for anyone counting calories, it seems to work just fine.
