How is coffee 0 calories?
In: 4780
The basic idea is that our bodies can convert food into energy and we measure the amount of energy in the food or drink as calories. Coffee, plain and without anything added to it, has so little of that sort of energy in it that it might as well be zero. It’s primarily water with flavoring coming from ground up coffee beans. But it’s still mostly water, and there’s not enough of the coffee beans in the drink for your body to convert into energy.
If you add sugar or milk to it, then it has calories. Those are things that our bodies can easily convert into energy.
