The Negative Calorie Diet is based on the principle that you are going to be eating foods that have negative calories. It is a pretty easy concept. You may think that all foods have calories, right? Wrong! There are some foods that contain very little calories at all. The thing that many people get confused with is that most foods have some calories. But, all foods require the body to provide some energy to burn them, and that is where the negative calories come in.

If a certain food requires more of the body’s energy to consume it than the food produces, then that food will turn out to have a calorie deficit or to be a negative calorie food. These foods can help you lose weight. So say for example, you eat something that is 65 calories. Once your body burns off those 65 calories, you will have actually eaten zero calories. So, you can eat as many negative foods as you want in the negative calorie diet, and not only will you not gain weight, but you will actually lose weight.

Something else that should be considered on the negative calorie diet is the way you cook your food. Believe it or not, cooking can actually add calories to your food. For example, if you fry your vegetables in butter, the butter will add not only calories but fat, too. If you want the best nutritional value, eat the vegetables raw. If you must cook them, try boiling, steaming or cooking them in a frying pan with nonfat cooking spray.

What are negative calorie foods? This ebook identifies around 22 vegetables including Carrots, Broccoli, Radishes and Cabbages and some 19 fruits including Papayas, Grapefruit, Strawberries and Oranges.

Does all this mean that you will never have to get on a treadmill again? Of course not. As with any other diet on the market today, healthy eating and exercise go hand in hand. Any time you move your body, you are burning calories. It doesn’t matter what you are doing: washing dishes, running or washing the car. You are burning calories.

When you eat and your food is digesting, you are also burning calories. Each of us is different, but on the average, people burn 5% to 15% of their total daily calorie intake from just digesting their foods. This is an amazing statistic.

Let’s do an easy calculation here. Stick with me for a minute. Your body consumes 2500 calories a day roughly. You exercise an hour a day so your body only requires 2000 calories to maintain your current weight. With those numbers, you are actually consuming 500 more calories each day than you need. After 7 days that amounts to 3500 calories. Since 3500 calories is equivalent to a pound, you are actually gaining one pound a week.

Now, factor in your digestion which is burning 125 calories. Take those 125 calories away from the 500 extra calories and you would end up cutting the extra calories to 375 a day. But even with those extra 375 calories, you are still going to gain that extra pound, but it will take 2 days longer. If you consume 2500 calories a day minus 10% of your daily intake, that would equal 250 calories being burned during digestion each day. It will take you two weeks to gain that same pound.

What does this all mean? The average person eating average foods is going to slowly put on weight. This is where you need to increase your consumption of negative calorie foods and where better to find out how, than with the Negative Calorie Diet ebook.
