A member asked:

Could you tell me what are all the different types of calories in food?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Calories are equal: A calorie (kcal) is a measurement of the amount of heat produced when a substance is burned. A calorie from a slice of pizza is the same as one from a cup of yogurt. There are just more calories in a slice of pizza.
