We will take the average TEF rate (27.5%, 10%, and 2.5%, respectively) and recalculate the calories in our 40 randomly selected foods. These MFP geniuses are getting ahead of themselves! They are accounting for TEF! This has to be it! The most calories are burned when we eat protein (20-35% of the calories we consume), second most when we eat carbohydrates (5-15%), and the fewest when we eat fats (0-5%). We burn calories via digestion this is called the thermic effect of food.
