Empty calories are worse, in many ways, but yes. If you run a caloric deficit you lose weight. That is an actual fact. A lot of the food is low quality food, which I would strongly advise people not to eat. But they do. They prefer it, as we see every day. If they eat LESS of it they will either lose weight or slow their expanding weight gain by running a caloric deficit or overeating less. They should eat none of it if they want to live a long and healthy life. Obviously.
