Does eating candy cause you to gain weight?

Regardless of the fat content of candy, it generally contains a high number of calories. If the calories consumed are greater than the calories burned, typically weight is gained. If you were to eat a no-fat, low-no sugar candy then weight gain would be minimal. If you are trying to gain weight it is not recommended either. It is not very nutritional and it is one of the worst foods to eat when trying to loose or gain weight.
