Today on the Doctors they had a chef name Rocco Dispirito and he was talking about healthy food (check out the website), but they also talked about some foods that have negative calories.
These foods include:
Cucumber
Broccoli - a 3.5 ounce bowl is 25 calories but eating it you can burn up to 80 calories digesting it
aparagus - has only 4 calories per spear

I hope this helps everyone to make a few healthy choices that can be benificial when making a lifestyle change.

    I don't really think they end up being negative.

    Broccoli is a great food though and I eat it often.

    Rocco is amazing. I heard him on the radio and added his book to my wish list on Amazon!!
