Calories...

Calories. Everyone is talking about calories. How much to eat, how many to burn and so on and so on and so on. But how many of you know, what a calorie actually is? So here is a definition of a calorie for you:
A calorie is a unit of energy which is defined by the amount of energy or heat it takes to
increase the temperate of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius. Nowadays we tend to
associate calories with food and drink, but in actual fact they can apply to anything which
contains energy, such as electricity or gas!
 So here you go, now you know that little fact :)
