Each gram of fat you consume provides over twice as many calories as a gram of protein or carbohydrates. what does this tell you about your body’s ability to burn off these three fuels? which would require the most energy to burn?

Since each gram of fat you consume provides over twice as many calories as a gram of fat, this tells us that it requires more energy to burn off fats than it does to burn off protein or carbohydrates. It takes the longest amount of time to burn off fats, then proteins and carbohydrates are the easiest to burn off.

Hope this helped and Merry Christmas to you!
