Fat Loss Foods & Negative Calories



The concept of consuming deficit calories is an intriguing option when talking about fat loss foods.

There are no true negative calorie foods as everything has at least a few calories so the name “negative calorie” stems from something else.

Basically, a weight loss food which has so few calories that it takes the body more energy to digest it than what is consumed is considered negative calorie.

Primarily, fruits and vegetables fall under the category of negative calorie food that are very beneficial to lose weight. You may include blackberries, peaches, lemons, plums, cantaloupe, guava, raspberries, grapefruit and various other healthy fruits.

Some of the negative calorie vegetables are : spinach, tomatoes, peppers, celery, broccoli, asparagus, cabbage and lettuce.
