Negative Calorie Diet

Try the Negative Calorie Diet

Critics have tried to downgrade the Negative Calorie Diet, but the positive have always out weight the negative.  How could you go wrong by replace fatty foods with fruits and vegetables.  It just a matter of calculation.  If you burn off 200 calories a day then you need to only eat 150 calories a day.  You will automatically lose 50 calories a day.

Consider these facts:
  1. A piece of dessert consisting of 400 calories may only require 150 calories to digest by our body, resulting in a net gain of 250 calories which is added to our body fat !
  2. On the other hand, a 5 calorie piece of celery may require 150 calories to digest, but resulting in a net loss of 145 calories from our body fat !! The more you eat, the more you lose weight!!!

While there are multiple versions of the negative calorie diet, they all, for the most part, tell the dieter to eat and drink food products that have a negative caloric effect. 

A negative caloric effect" means that the number of calories your body has to expend to chew, digest, metabolize and eliminate the food is more than it gains from the food itself. A classic example of a negative calorie food would be celery, which is made primarily of water and cellulose (fiber that your body can't digest), and non-caloric vitamins and minerals.

How Does A Negative Calorie Diet Work?

A Negative Calorie diet works on the premise that certain foods create negative calorie effects (negative calorie foods), allowing you to lose weight. The Negative Calorie diet is controversial because the theory is not scientifically sound. No foods actually possess ‘negative calories’. However, advocates of the Negative Calorie diet say that you can literally eat your way to weight loss. A negative calorie diet e-book has even been published on this topic.

As you eat any type of food your body produces enzymes to break down the calories contained in the food. As with the Negative Calorie Diet, some are thought to believe that it actually produces more enzymes than needed to break down the calories contained in the food itself. So for every orange you eat, you should burn off 25 calories. This is why advocates of the Negative Calorie Diet encourage you to eat frequent healthy meals, in doing so you are actually increasing the speed of your metabolism.  

With this said, you may be wondering what types of foods are in the Negative Calorie Diet.
