What is a Calorie? How accurate is a Calorie in our body?

a) What is a “Calorie”? A calorie is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius. The “calorie” that is talked about in the human body is actually a Kilocalorie, or 1,000 Calories. The press, many articles, and many nutritionists routinely misuse the term “Calorie” for the “Kilocalorie” (or “KCal”). To be correct, I will use the terms Calorie for a true Calorie and KCal for the nutritional term (as it should be). To make my case- common sense tells us that the temperature of a small glass of cold water does not rock our calorific world. Take 100 ml of cold water, normally at about 8C. Our body temp is 37C. Our body has to produce enough heat to warm the temp of the water to body temp, namely 29C. So, 1 ml of cold water requires 29 calories from our body to equilibrate to body temp. Therefore, 100 ml requires 2,900 calories! If nutritional calories were truly calories, this small glass of cold water would be a miraculous...

The facts on "Probiotics"

I am amazed at the tripe and the money being spent on "Probiotics". The whole premise revolves around the "good" bacteria found in the colon of human babies that are nursing from lactating mothers . These bacteria are the class "Lactobacilli" (Lactobacillus Bulgaricus, Lactobacillus Casei, Lactobacillus Acidophilus etc.) and are named so because they feed off Lactose. Human milk has amongst the highest Lactose content (more than 4%) among mammalian milk. The more the Lactose, the more the Lactobacilli bacteria. A meat eating adult human has no chance of cultivating Lactobacilli in their gut. They can guzzle all the "Probiotics" they want- to no avail. This is because the colon of adult humans is rich in "Bacillus" and other forms of very aggressive bacteria that secrete the "protease" enzymes required to break down meat. The presence of these aggressive bacteria, and the lack of Lactose in the colon, extinguishes any p...
