Fiber does not have any nutritional value or associated calories, because it is not absorbed by the body. It instead adds bulk and mass to the foods you eat, and it is then pushed through the digestive system. All of the fiber you take in is excreted from your body as waste. The only components of food with calculated calorie content are: fat (9 kcal in one gram) protein (4 kcal in one gram) and carbs (4 kcal in one gram). Also, alcohol has a caloric value of 7 kcal per gram.
