Foods high in protein, fat, or carbohydrates provide energy. The amount of kilocalories, or "calories," required for each unit of a person's body.

Why do newborns require a higher amount of calories from fat in their meals than adults do?

Fat is crucial for brain function and neurological development, especially in infancy and early childhood. 40–50% of the energy in mother's milk and newborn formula comes from fat (Fidler et al. 1998). Ingested carbohydrate and protein as well as endogenous metabolism are two possible sources of body fat.

Why do you gain weight when you consume more calories than your body requires?

A person can stop burning fat, and when they consume more calories, they become very good at storing fat. A healthy weight should be not by the number of calories you consume, but rather by the kinds of foods you eat and lifestyle adjustments like exercise.
