자주 묻는 질문
What is the difference between calories and kilocalories?
1 kilocalorie (kcal or food Calorie) = 1,000 small calories. Food labels use kcal but write "calories" — always clarify which unit is meant.
How many joules in a food calorie?
1 food Calorie (kcal) = 4,184 joules. A 2,000 kcal diet = 8,368,000 joules of energy.
Why do scientists use joules?
Joules are SI units (international standard). Calories are historical and vary slightly by definition. Science uses joules; nutrition uses kcal.
