Kilocalories are equal in
energy terms, but most nutritionists and dietitians recommend calorie
savings made by eating "nutrient-dense" foods in preference
to "empty calorie" foods that contain calories but little nutritional
value. This applies especially to new moms following a calorie-controlled
diet plan to reduce weight after pregnancy.
