Do twix make you fat

Answer 1

There are plenty of theories regarding weight loss and weight control. There's Glycemic Index, there's LCHF just to mention a few.

But when it comes to controlling your body weight, the biggest thing is your energy (= calorie) balance.

If what you eat and drink during the day has more energy/calories than you use up, the body will turn that excess energy into fat and store it.

And it's always a balance between what, and how much you eat.

It's the calories that count the most - not the shape they come in.

A big serving of something that's low in calories,can have the same total number as a small serving of something that's high in calories.

It's a bit like with money, a bucket of coins can have the same value as a small stack of bills.

Again, It's the numbers that counts, not the shape they come in.

Now, for someone trying to lose or maintain weight, sweets are risky. Sweets are high in sugar which means that they are fairly high in calories as well. A handful of them, andy you'll be getting more calories than you're likely to use up during the day.

There's nothing special about sweets as such, the same amount of calories from any other source would contribute just at much to your body weight.

Thing is, it's just so much easier to overeat on sweets than on something like cucumber.

It's all about that balance. If you stay within your calorie budget, sweets won't make you fat. If you go outside your budget, the excess calories will add just as much to your body regardless if they're from gummy sweets or from apples.

Whatever method you look at, they're all after the same goal - to reduce a person's overall calorie intake/uptake. And as long as they do that, they will work.

Answer 2

Obviously, like any food- it contains a certain amount of fat. Yes, most foods could cause you to become fat if you have too much of it. Most foods have a different amount of fat. For example, an apple has less fat than a chocolate bar because of the ingredients. So yes, twix will make you fat. ONLY if you eat it continuously and do not exercise. If you ate twix 6 times a day and didn't exercise- it will make you fat!

If you have it sparingly and do exercise- it shouldn't make you fat.

Indulge in it once or twice but if you eat it too much it could clog your arteries and make you fat!

Answer 3

if eaten in large quantities yes.

Answer 4

I don't think so but I kinda do coz they contain sugar which can add on to your weight in one way or another
