| Healthy Eating | Food energy density: Feel full on fewer calories | So what exactly is energy density? Simply put, it's the number of calories in the amount or weight of food you eat. Foods that don't have a lot of calories packed into each bite — such as fruits and vegetables — are low in energy density. They also tend to be low in fat and high in water or fiber content. Foods high in energy density pack a lot of calories into a small volume of food; these include fatty foods, such as many fast foods, and foods high in sugar, such as soda and candy. This is why you can eat a lot more low-density foods for fewer calories. Sound good?
