What are foods that have calories but have no nutrients?
There are very few foods that have no nutrients whatsoever, but still have calories. More foods would fall into the range that they contain calories, but very little nutrients. These are known as "empty calories", meaning that they really do not help for the body. Some examples of these would be fried foods, refined sugars / starches, bleanced flours, and high-fat foods (like butter and lard).
If you eat desserts in a dark place will they contain calories?
Yes. Sweets still contain calories, even in the dark. you just might have a harder time eating if you can't see.
Are nutrients dense foods always high in calories?
No, nutrient-dense foods are not always high in calories. Nutrient density refers to the amount of essential nutrients (vitamins, minerals, fiber, etc.) in relation to the number of calories a food contains. For example, vegetables, fruits, and legumes are often low in calories but high in nutrients, while some calorie-dense foods may offer fewer essential nutrients. Thus, nutrient-dense foods can be low in calories while still providing significant health benefits.
Do sugar free cakes still contain a lot of calories?
Sugar free cakes contain fewer calories than regular cakes because they are made with artificial sweetener instead of sugar. This simple substitution reduces the number of calories in the cake, but also affects the taste.

How many calories can you have being on a diet?
Most people say that a 2000 calorie per day intake is average. If you can cut that down to about 1000 calories per day, you're now talking diet! One way to do this safely is to eat cereal or oatmeal. They still contain necessary vitamins but do not amount to too many calories. Throw in a piece of chicken for protein and there ya go!
Which 3 soil horizons contain the most nutrients?
The A horizon contains the most nutrients as it is the top layer of soil with high organic matter content. The B horizon, which is below the A horizon, also contains a significant amount of nutrients as it is the layer where nutrients and minerals accumulate. The C horizon, while less nutrient-rich, can still contain some nutrients that leach down from the upper layers.
Can you eat beans while breastfeeding and still provide your baby with the necessary nutrients?

Can I still eat ice cream on any low fat diet plans?
Ice cream does contain a lot of fat and calories. You can have frozen yogurt, however, which tastes just like ice cream, but without the fat and calories.
What kinds of food will not add any fat to your body?
All food contains calories, even foods that are "healthy" and don't contain very many calories, (like veggies) still have calories and therefore are still able to be stored as fat in your body if you don't burn them off. 100 calories of red pepper will make you gain the same amount of weight as 100 calories of butter, for example. (However, veggies are packed with nutrients, while butter is not, so they're still healthier.) While you digest your food, all the fat/sugars/protein are broken down into simple pieces and used for energy, growth and repair in your body. If some is left over, it is converted to fat and stored. It's as simple as that. So, to answer your question, potentially any food can be stored as fat in your body.
What whold happen if we didn't have the small intestine?
We wouldn't be able to absorb nutrients properly. Although there are some surgeries where part of the small intestine can be resected (removed) it is still necessary to have some part of it in other to absorb nutrients. Without nutrients, we'd ultimately die.
