| | Food and Energy |
 | | Foods exist on this continuum and can be characterized as predominantly yin or yang, according to the effect they have on the body. | | | Energy exists on a continuum, from yin, among whose attributes are cold, darkness, and contraction, to yang, characterized by heat, light, and expansion. | | | Food is the second most important way in which energy is taken into the body. |

| | Food energy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The values for food energy are expressed in kilocalories (kcal) and kilojoules (kJ). | | | One Calorie is approximately equal to 4.1868 kilojoules. | | | This number is then multiplied by a coefficient which is based on how the human body actually digests the food. |

| | In a rather thorough review of research literature, I found numerous studies which support of the principle of adaptation, I.E. whatever food sources you ingest, your body is able and apt to adapt and oxidize food-fuels for the extreme demands of endurance performance. | | | As Rich noted, the body has a harder time digesting food when running (blood flow is shunted away from the digestive system to exercising muscle). | | | Lastly there is everything else you could possible include in making your primary sports drink or food the most effective performance enhancing formula possible. |

| | "The fact that memory was enhanced soon after the ingestion of energy from any macronutrient may be explained from an evolutionary perspective," Kaplan says. | | | The positive results occurred in verbal recall tests administered 15 minutes after the participants -- 11 males and 11 females, aged 61 to 79 -- consumed each type of drink. | | | Other memory tests involving attention and non-verbal tasks showed variable effects, he says, suggesting that specific types of food energy enhance specific aspects of brain function. |

| | Food and energy |
| | About 75 percent of the food grown on farms is processed in some way before consumption. | | | So, you know about keeping an eye on the calories in your food as part of a healthy diet, right? Calories are a measure of the energy that food provides your body, and a good calorie-nutrient balance is important. | | | Consumer demand for processed food has skyrocketed in the past two decades. However, just as high—calorie foods often have low nutrition when you’re counting calories in a diet, some of the highly processed foods—that requires high amounts of energy in their manufacture—are also the most nutritionally suspect. |
