The total or gross energy of ingested food consists of two components: digestible energy and indigestible energy, the latter of which takes the form of feces. Of the digestible energy, some is unmetabolizable, leaving the body as urine. The remaining metabolizable energy is usable net energy and specific dynamic action (or body heat).
