Calorie dense refers to foods or substances that contain a high number of calories relative to their weight or volume. These foods typically provide a significant amount of energy in a small serving size, often due to high levels of fats or sugars. Examples include nuts, oils, and sugary snacks. Consuming calorie-dense foods can lead to increased energy intake, which may contribute to weight gain if not balanced with physical activity.
