Do I understand correctly, that the only thing Camacho was measuring were calories, without checking the amount of carbs vs fats vs proteins contained in what he ate?
- hvs 5y agoIt seemed like it, but wasn't clear. It said, He ditched his heavily processed low-calorie products and focused on the quality of his food rather than quantity. It also mentioned that he at a lot of "low-fat" foods. So, my guess is that his carb intake was pretty high. This is exactly why "calories in, calories out" isn't accurate. Your balance of macronutrients is much more important, but total caloric intake still needs to be monitored.
- marcodave 5y agoit seems weird to me that with all the time and energy spent to measure everything to the point of obsession , one would not even take in account the rest of the nutrients. It feels like a made up story to prove a point.
