To maintain a healthy diet, we need to put more attention to the calorie we take in a daily basis. Too much calorie leads to many health issue and disease. A healthy male adult should take approximately 2000 calories a day and a healthy female adult should take about 1200 calories. These numbers are only suggested figures because many other factors like age, height, body weight, and daily activities should also be taken into consideration. All the factors will affect the calorie intake. For example, younger teenagers usually need more calories because their metabolism is much faster than adult.

If you would like to know more about the food you eat, you can also use another calorie counter from the following website.
