Please provide any evidence that a carb calorie counts for nearly 4 protein calories and I’ll take your anecdote a lot more seriously. You’re making an extraordinary claim with no evidence. Why would I accept your anecdote over my “assumption” that dietary scientists weren’t all completely incompetent when they agreed that a calorie is roughly a calorie? How is it that you calculated a 4:1 conversion and everyone with an actual lab doesn’t? If you told me that one time your car got 120 mpg because you switched to premium fuel, I’d likewise not believe you. I’m much more likely to think your gauge is faulty or you misread your actual results. As much as you might want your personal anecdote to be compelling, it just isn’t. I’m not going to give your anecdote the same weight that I give the broad scientific consensus.
