That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
Fat is the nutrient that gives more energy when compared to carbohydrates. While carbohydrates provide 4 calories per gram, fats provide 9 calories per gram. This is because fats are more concentrated in energy and require more metabolic processes to be broken down and utilized by the body. Therefore, consuming foods high in fat can provide a greater amount of energy compared to foods high in carbohydrates.
