In Episode 6, Tiffany discovers that not all calories are equal when it comes to weight loss and overall health. As part of that discussion, she answers the following questions:

• Is a calorie a calorie?
• How does understanding nutrient density lead to weight loss?
• What is a high-quality calorie?
• How does a diet composed of mostly high-quality calories achieve weight loss and better health?

She also provides an update on the second week of her 1 year, 50-lb weight loss challenge.
