Here is an interesting fact regarding our food/calorie consumption. Having a glass of apple juice per day is a good thing, one thinks. Well, think again. If we were to consume a glass of apple juice over and above of our energy needs per day, this is what happens.

250ml of apple juice is 120 calories
(source: sunrype web site, "blue lable apple juice")

120cal * 365 days = 43800cal /year

43800 cal / (9cal / gram of fat) = 4867 grams / year = 10.7 pounds / year

Indeed, we potentially put on 10 pounds of fat in one year.

Our weight control is essentially very simple - Energy in equals Energy out - no fad diets or drastic measures are required, just a balanced diet.

Keep on moving and burning those calories....
