you might also recall that i have never come here, touting "number of calories". what i have said is the following : make sure you get ample protein, ample essential fats, and the rest is good carbs.

now perhaps you can understand why i said this. ample protein and essential fats for our anabolic processes, while the good carbs gives us our energy, our phytonutrients. this is the basis for "optimum health".
