It's used to be charged against the calories intake, however you can't double dib.

Impact of the movie Fed Up and the lifestyle changes that ensured:
	The documentary “Fed up is one of the most poignant documentations about how the food industry id contributing more to the increasing problems of obesity than reducing it. It introduces the viewers to the concepts of calories and basal metabolic rate from a perspective, which was not known to the common people before. The calorie is defined in terms of the unit of energy.  Calories has been defined by the researchers as one "calorie" referring to a single unit of energy or heat that evolves from any carbon source such as glucose which is usually derived from food in humans. In human diet, each calorie comes from the sources of food, ranging from proteins to carbohydrates to fats that are digested to form energy so that bodily functions can continue (Smolin & Grosvenor, 2019).
	The guideline for the maintenance of calories and the individual intake is provided by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) for various age groups and the levels of activity. Accordingly, nutritionists suggests that 2,000 calories per day should be enough for a middle aged moderately active female whereas the consumptions of calories range from 2,400 to 2,600 calories per day for a middle aged moderately active male (Willett & Skerrett, 2017). Therefore, we see that calories depend on age, sex and the amount of activity done each day. The Basal Metabolic Rate or BMR is the total amount of calories that is required to keep the body functioning at rest. BMR is also equivalent to the body’s metabolism.
