Reply:i eat apples, nectarines, oranges all the time and I always have lots of energy. Or maybe it's why im naturally slim. Either way fruits and veg are always good for your and processed food usually isn't. that's pretty much all I need to know.

Reply:so called "negative calorie" diets or foods are based on personal opinion not on science. it is a proven and undisputed scientific fact that proteins have the greatest thermogenic effect, then carbohydrates then fats. so the body will expend more energy digesting 3 oz. of protein then it will 3 oz of any carbohydrate or 3 oz of fat. people with the genetic predisposition for obesity and/or easy weight gain do not have normally functioning metabolism. their bodies do not expend as much energy digesting foods. this is one of many reasons why some people continue to gain weight even on a reduced calorie diet.
Reply:Most of these are actually considered neutral calorie foods (ie you don't gain or loose anything by eating them)
Reply:Well, not to sure. An expert might no.
Reply:As a persons B.M.R. (the amount of energy intake required just to maintain essential bodily functions without physically doing anything) can be 2000 - 2500 Kcals, if you just ate these types of foods you would have to eat a vast quantity just to maintain body mass, add in work, if you walk say, 5 miles per day, you would need to consume the equivalent to around 70 apples per day, that is going some even for the North East area Apple eating champ!!
Reply:The only one I had heard of was celery - and I believe that was debunked!
Most of the other fruit %26amp; veg contain fruit sugars although I guess the offset may be enough to make up for that.
Most greens ARE calorie AND carb neutral so can be eaten on diets.
Not sure about frogs legs - never felt the complusion to try them!!!
Reply:If it were true and you only ate those foods for 3 months then you would starve to death. It is a myth. They say you burn more calories then you get eating them but that is included. If you ate only those foods you would not get fat since most of them are healthy. You already know that the bad foods are those made by man like bread, pasta, candy, ice cream, crackers etc. Add a lot of salt to any of the above and they are very fattening.
There are more diets than ever and more people dieting than ever and yet we have the fattest society ever. So a lot of these ideas about losing weight, make you fatter. Cutting calories, carbs and fats can cause you to have a weight problem for life. It is better to eat differently. See site below and learn why lean meat, black coffee and non-fat yogurt are so fattening. The people counting calories are the fat people.
Also salt has no calories but makes you fat. This also has the quickest weight loss possible. Eat good carbs, not bad carbs. Nourish your body thin, instead of starving your body fat. Eat foods made by nature
and avoid foods made by man which are designed to make you fat and very addicted to food. 5th link on "LINKS" page is BMI calculator to see if you are overweight.
