Are all calories considered only energy? My friends have recently been telling me thar there is no such thing as bad or good calories and that what is bad is the type of food.

LOL wat

A calorie is a unit of energy. No food or calorie source is inherently bad, but can be less than ideal in excess.

I mean.. the calories from a BK cheeseburger will be different from the calories from a fresh carrot because of the ingredient difference i might be wrong I have no background in health only know what I know from articles on the internet

Aite so they were correct

I mean I'm not telling you to go eat 10 donuts to get your daily kcal requirements, there is still a need for a variety of micronutrients for proper metabolism so fruits and veg are great but you don't have to become a vegan to maintain body comp or health. Basically avoid great extremes in your diet. Get a little bit of everything and you'll be alright
