Detailed explanation-1: -The more calories a food has, the more energy it can provide to your body. When you eat more calories than you need, your body stores the extra calories as body fat. Even a fat-free food can have a lot of calories. Excess calories in any form can be stored as body fat.
Detailed explanation-2: -A sufficient calorie deficit causes fats to be released from fat cells and used as energy. Exercise amplifies this process by increasing blood flow to muscles and fat cells, releasing fats to be used for energy in muscle cells at a more rapid rate and increasing energy expenditure ( 4 ).
Detailed explanation-3: -Any fat that your body does not use for energy is converted into body fat. Eating too much fat can therefore lead to weight gain. Being overweight raises your risk of serious health problems such as: heart disease.
