Negative Calorie Foods
Negative Calorie Foods
Don’t let ignorance and your lack of interest
in doing your own research
let you become one of the people
that spread false information.
Why are there so many people that don't believe that there are negative calorie
foods?
Let me clear this up.
Negative calorie foods aren't foods with less than zero calories.
Negative calorie foods, such as raw cabbage, take more calories of energy for
your body to break down than there are in the food itself.
Hypothetical example.
One cup of raw cabbage has about 22 calories.
It may take 30 calories of energy to break down that cup of cabbage.
you actually used 8 calories by eating the cabbage.
Keep in mind that a calorie is a unit of measurement - "unit of heat
defined as the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of
water by 1 degree centigrade at atmospheric pressure "
That's all a calorie is, a measurement of heat an object can generate if it is
burnt. Some foods take more energy to break down than they contain. These are
called negative calorie foods.
