Negative Calorie Foods and Binging
If a food has "negative calories" (see
www.healthrecipes.com/negative_calories_list.htm), does it mean you can eat it until you're stuffed (even unconfortably stuffed) and not gain any weight, or does the food lose its negative properties after a certain point? |

I'm not sure I believe those food are all negative. I once heard in a trivia
quiz that celery is the only neg cal food - that I could believe. |

Well looking at the list, I think you could pretty much eat as much as you would want to eat and still lose weight... but that's been the thinking on fruit and veg for years. Foods don't need to be negative calorie to lose weight, just low calorie. Digesting all those fruit and veg would fill you up and indeed burn off a few extra, and be good for your digestive system. I'd imagine you'd have a fairly easy and productive morning on the toilet the day after as well! |

There is no such thing as a negative calorie food, teh calculation
with food energy units is kilo calories not the calories they take about inphysics to raise the temperature of water 1°. The foods they list are low calorie and have usually a high water content.
