Question:

What are negative calorie foods?

can i have a list?


Answers:
i know celery cabbage and grapefruit i know they are all fruits and vegetables

they are called negative calorie foods because you use more calories digesting them than they have in them

however no diet should be based on these foods they are more of foods you should snack on while still taking in enough calories to keep your body nourished (at least 1200)

Fruits

apple
cranberries
grapefruit
lemon
mango
orange
pineapple
raspberries
strawberries
tangerine

Vegetables

asparagus
beet
broccoli
cabbage (green)
carrot
cauliflower
celery
Chile peppers (hot)
cucumber
dandelion
endive
garden cress
garlic
green beans
lettuce
onion
papaya
radishes
spinach
turnip


i found this list thought it might help

celery is the only one i know of.

negative calorie foods use more calories to be digested than they provide to the system......celery, asparagus, spinach, watermelon, grapefruit, papaya, lettuce, most greens, pineapple etc
