Abstract :

Burning calories encompass the measurement and understanding of energy expenditure, whether through the caloric content of food or the calories burned during physical activities. A well-balanced diet can certainly help in burning calories. A diet rich in protein, fiber, and unsaturated fats can provide a feeling of fullness and boost metabolism or burn excess calories. Exercise is widely recognized for burning calories. Various exercise modalities can effectively contribute to energy expenditure. Relying solely on exercise may lead to neglecting other opportunities such as non-exercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT) which is defined as energy expenditure by everything we do daily other than exercise. These may be beneficial for increasing energy expenditure. It is important to have a balanced perspective and consider all aspects of daily life that can contribute to calorie burning, not just formal exercise or diet. Keywords: Energy expenditure, balanced diet, exercise, non-exercise activity thermogenesis
