Caloric deficit
Topic
A caloric deficit is a state in which the number of calories consumed is lower than the number of calories required to maintain current body weight. This energy shortage forces the body to utilize stored energy, such as fat or muscle, to meet its metabolic demands, making it the primary driver of weight loss.
