Negative Calorie Foods

Today at Natural Weight Loss I would like to talk about the so called "negative calorie foods."

There is a lot of hype floating around about "negative calorie foods."

It would appear that if you ate these foods all day long you would lose weight. This is because the energy expended in eating them is more than they actually contain. I would treat this theory with a certain amount of caution. But, what if we were to use these foods as replacements rather than eating more every day?

If we were to bulk up on these foods and eat less during our main meals it would help our natural weight loss program. The foods listed below are considered "negative calorie foods." However, I would just look at them as extremely low calorie foods that can help us reach our weight loss goals in a more natural way.


Fruits: Apricot, blackberry, cantaloupe, clementines, damsons, grapefruit, guava, honeydew melon and water melon, lemon, mandarin, peaches, plums, raspberry, rhubarb, strawberry, tangerine.
