17. Calorie Counting: Does It Actually Work?

What is calorie counting? Does it really work for everyone? Is it a helpful tool or just another diet myth? In this episode of our Nutrition Mini-Series, we break down how calorie tracking works, why it’s not one-size-fits-all, and what really impacts weight loss, muscle gain, and energy levels. We will dive into how many calories you actually need, question around metabolism, hormones & genetics and how they affect calorie burn. We are debunking common calorie counting mistakes and challenge if fitness trackers are lying to you. Plus, we’ll explain why not all calories are created equal, and how you can better understand the science behind calories without obsessing over the numbers.
