Calories in Wine
Wine has always been known as a very powerful "fat free" antioxidant.
Antioxidents are our cleansers, the components from food that control digestion, fat and protect the body from harmful damaging cells.
Calories are more about the sum of everything you consume in a day. To lose weight simply drop the total daily amount you consume.
Calories are measured with heat. Every component in food produces energy for example Protien, Carbs, and Fats together burn at a rate specific to the quantity they're consumed in.
Fat as you know takes the longest to burn in comparison to the rest of the other components where Protien and Carbohydrates burn the quickest.
1 gram of Protien = 4 Calories. 1 gram of Carbohydrate = 4 Calories but 1 gram of fat = 9 calories.
How do we calculate calories?
Look at your food labels, there you'll see the grams of nutrients and the calorie intake. Reduce your total consumption by 700 to 1000 per day to lose 1Lb per week.
Watch out for cravings, when the body realises it's normal intake is reduced it will crave so be strong minded there.
