We can't even measure calories accurately, never mind predicting how much your specific body will actually absorb. Maybe we could be more accurate with vitamins and stuff, but I dunno.

The only way to get an accurate reading on calorie count is to burn it. 1 kilocalorie (nutritional calorie) can increase the temperature of 1kg of water by 1 C°

Sure, but that is measuring calorie content, not what your body can absorb

Exactly, which makes the whole endeavour more of a guessing game than a science.

I think using trial and error to see what works for your body is a pretty scientific approach
