Frequently Asked Questions
What are the highest calorie foods per 100g?
Cooking oils top the list at 800–900 kcal per 100g, followed by nuts (almonds 620 kcal, walnuts ~654 kcal), seeds, and nut butters. For whole-food sources, full-fat cheeses (350–400 kcal) and oily meats are also highly calorie-dense.
How many calories do I need to gain weight?
You need to eat more calories than your body burns (a calorie surplus). Start with 250–500 kcal above your TDEE for slow, lean gains. Use the CalRay calorie calculator to find your maintenance calories first.
What's the difference between calorie-dense and nutrient-dense?
Calorie-dense foods pack many calories into a small volume (oils, nuts, chocolate). Nutrient-dense foods provide lots of vitamins and minerals relative to their calorie content (vegetables, fruits, lean proteins). Ideally, aim for foods that are both — like salmon, eggs, and avocado.
