Calories are a measurement of energy. The more calories (energy) we
consume and the less calories (energy) we expend the more likely to
gain weight (fat). The less energy we consume and the more we expend
the more likely we are to lose weight (fat).
What about the energy in heated foods versus the calories in cold food?
How many more calories do we get from a steak straight from the grill
versus a cold steak. How much weight would we lose by limiting the
amounts of calories (energy) by only eating cold food and avoiding the
heat energy temporarily infused into the food. Just let the meal go
cold and you would save at least a couple of calories. Why is the
energy stored in the hot foods not converted to fat storage? Or is it?
And what if we drop the temperature of the rooms that we reside in or
avoid spending any time in overheated conditions.
Why does external sources of calories like sunlight, indoor heating,
hot air temperatures not affect our weight over time? Or does it? Would
that explain why those living in colder climes (like Inuits) tend to be
thinner? And are they fatter now that they are exposed to higher
temperatures? Does that explain why people in the lower latitudes are
fatter? More heat energy in the environment provides heat energy to the
body, does it store the excess heat calories as fat?
Energy is energy and the laws of therodynamics make it clear that
energy has to go somewhere. Energy from foods turn to fat. Why does not
energy from a sauna that gets absorbed by the body not get turned to
fat?
Can the body only extract energy from foods? Why does it not extract
energy from the ambient heat? Energy is energy, isn't it? In extreme
heat, one should store the excess energy as fat, should we not?
And how does this affect our understanding of the laws of thermo
dynamics if the ambient heat energy isn't converted into fat? Where
does it go? It can't dissappear can it?
