The number of calories indicated for a particular food is worth paying attention to, but remember that the source of the calories is also an important piece of information. Some calories reflect a high degree of sugar with little or no additional nutritional benefit.
For example, an apple contains approximately the same number of calories as a 12-ounce can of soda. However, the soda contains calories from sugar or corn syrup. The apple contains calories from natural sugars, and it also contains vitamins and minerals. Think of the soda as containing empty calories.
Red meat and fish contain fewer calories than white meat such as pork. Fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and pasta contain the highest amount of usable nutrients per the amount of calories.
