Calorie counting should have been thrown out with the shell suit

Diets are dead and calorie counting is crude.  Weight management is not about the latest product or trend, it’s not about low fat, low calorie, fasting or that elusive magic pill.  I think most of us know that deep down.
 
No, being healthy and maintaining a healthy weight is not overly complicated, however much we try to make it, it just take s some thought and eating healthy.
 
It is becoming more recognized of late that Nutrients beat Calories when it comes to maintenance.
 
We talk a lot about calories but do you know what they are?  They are a unit used to count energy in relation to food, more specifically a calorie is the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1G of water by 1ºC. 
 
The problem is calories are only about the energy.  Each organ, cell in our body needs specific nutrients to function adequately.  Energy can be achieved by ingesting most foods but only nutrients can be found in specific foods.
 
When you have a lack of nutrients, which many on a modern diet will, it leaves your body in a starvation mode, this leads to your body storing what nutrients it is getting in fat stores, but also it creates cravings (a sign your body is looking for something it is lacking).
 
So if you are sick of yoyo dieting, constantly craving, no energy, lack of motivation you might want to stop thinking calories and start thinking nutrients
