        Yes. Just like all recommended calorie intake figures include the calories needed to process the digestion of food.

          Just want to note this is sarcasm for whoever doesn’t understand how calories are measured.

          They basically measure it by burning a substance, which is not an accurate measurement of how our bodies process them

        Interestingly, end stage alcoholics are often incredibly incredibly skinny from having a deficiency of nutrients. Although they will have very swollen abdomens from liver failure.

        So I guess just sprinkle some protein powder in your booze and you’ll be all set!
