Yeah, it's fun to listen to the pseudo-science explanations of super powers. There was a scene in Firestarter by Stephen King, just a reprint of some memos going back and forth between the scientists studying the pyrokinetic girl. "She raised the temperature by X degrees in so many seconds and only consumed about 13 calories in the process, the same amount she would from just standing there. If you can explain to me where the energy came from I'll have your Nobel Prize waiting for you." Something like that, quoting from memory and I read that in high school...
