For these contents, please refer to the "Food Calorie Table"; some foods are eaten in large quantities, but only a temporary feeling of fullness is achieved, and the nutrition is not comprehensive. They are also low in calories; some foods are even negative calorie foods. Therefore, eating actually does not depend on the quantity, but on the number of calories consumed. This is the reason why some people gain weight even if they drink water (of course this is an exaggeration. First, their gastrointestinal function is good, second, they eat foods with higher calories, and third, they may lack exercise).
