🤦🏻 MYTH
Some foods directly make us fat – i.e. they are inherently “fattening”
–
✅ TRUTH
This is nonsense 🤣
–
The only way to GAIN body fat is to sustain a calorie surplus
–
A calorie surplus is when we consume more calories than our body needs ⚖
–
Whilst it’s certainly true that some foods contain MORE calories than others … 🍕
–
… there exists NO food NOR drink that directly causes us to gain fat ❌
–
Since a calorie surplus is the ONLY way to gain body fat, referring to individual foods as “fattening” doesn’t actually make any sense 🤷🏻♂️
–
Describing foods as “calorific” would be more appropriate …
–
But, rest assured, if there’s no overall calorie surplus, there will be no fat gain 😁
–
So enjoy that (insert calorific food here) worry-free! 👊
Stay awesome & keep going! ✌️
