Negative Calorie Foods

Posts: 3
Negative calorie foods are foods, which use more calories to digest than the calories food actually contains! Calories from these foods are much harder for the body to use. In other words, the body has to work hard in order to extract calories from these foods. Even though a food may contain equal amount of calories, much less of these calories can possibly turn into fat in negative calorie foods as fewer calories are actually available to the body. This gives these foods a tremendous natural fat-burning advantage.
These foods will have maximum benefits when eaten without any empty calorie foods (junk foods). There are several foods such as vegetables and fruits that have negative calorie effect. Some of the foods that can be eaten in generous quantities are: Asparagus, Beets, Carrot, Zucchini, Papaya, Strawberry, Raspberry, etc. Look at the list below.

Thanks for the info! I've had lots of mango this week so that's good to know!0

Woohoo! LOVE that! I need more info like that. And I am so glad to see that a lot of that stuff is already in my diet. Love it, love it, love it! I only wish I could get my DH to eat some of this stuff. Come to think of it, I can't remember the last time I saw him eat anything from that list (seriously). :noway:0

this is great, and yes, "technically cucumbers and peppers are fruits too". any food that is a "container of seeds" is a fruit. Any food that was a root, leaf, or actual seed is technically a vegetable ...kinda neat!0
