2-2. ABOUT DAILY CALORIE NEEDS
All food provides calories and all calories provide energy. The human body uses this energy
to live, breathe and perform all daily activities. A man consumes more energy than a woman.
Usually, his energy needs are from 5 to 10% higher than those of a woman - with the exception
of a pregnant or lactating woman, whose daily calorie needs ensure the good health of the
mother and the baby.
