No, kilocalories measure the amount of energy in foods. There is between 4 and 9 kilocalories per gram in the digestible portion of any foods.
Calories is a measure of how much energy is derived from a serving of food. It represents the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius.
The recommended unit to use for any type of energy is the joule. That way, no conversion factors are required, when converting from one type of energy to another. In practice, the calorie or kilocalorie is still sometimes used for food.
Calories are the unit of energy used to measure how much energy is present in food. One calorie is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius.
A calorie is a unit of heat used to measure the energy your body uses and the energy it receives from food. It represents the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius.
A calorimeter. Basically you burn food inside a box and then measure the energy you get out of it. You have to make sure that the energy does not get out of the box
The amount of oxygen that's consumed when you burn your food is an indirect measure of the amount of energy that's released from the food. Bomb calorimeters are sometimes used to measure the energy content in food.
Kilo joules are used to measure the amount of energy stored in food.
Cal means calories. It is a measure of the amount of energy that a particular food has. So, if we eat that particular food, then we will obtain that amount of energy.
The calorie (usually expressed in kilocalories)

kcals is a measure of energy in foods. All food you eat has some measure of energy in it. kcals does not describe the food you eat and the contents (or nutritional value) of the food. It merely tells you how much energy you are getting from it. Therefore, the simple answer to your question is: you are unable to tell. For example, 2150kcals of white sugar will have minimal (if any) grams of proteins in it. Similarly, 2150kcals of 100% whey protein will have a high proportion of usable protein in it. By giving a number of kcals, gives no information whatsoever about the makeup of that food, and therefore the amount of protein in it.
Calories are the unit of energy used to measure how much energy is present in food. One calorie is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius.
1 cal is the energy used to heat 1 g of water by 1K
The amount of energy that you can get from that food. We get our energy from calories. And when we burn energy, we burn calories. So, we measure calories to see how much energy we will get from that particular food. This tells us how much of that food we should eat, compared to how much energy we expend.
There isn't a "herbal energy" in the strict sense of 'energy' but it may be a measure of the energy you'd obtain from a given amount of a herbal tea or similar as a food.
