Negative Calorie Food
Some nutrition experts believe that the foods listed here will supposed to require you to burn more calories digesting them than you will get by eating them. In other words, if you eat these food items constantly you're supposedly going to lose weight because they would result in a calorie deficit. You no longer have to work out, if the negative calorie food theory is correct.

Re: Negative Calorie Food
There was a thread a while back where someone claimed that apples were negative claorie foods and people quickly proved that they are not. I would guess the same is true for many of the foods on that list.

Re: Negative Calorie Food
There are 2 sides to the theory and this site claims that no food has "negative calories", except for pure cellulose.

Re: Negative Calorie Food
It's not that the food has less calories, it's that the body only needs a certain amount of nutrients and already has many that these foods offer. So while the food might have 200 calories or something the body only digests like 6.
I know this is true for celery, but I don't know about the others.
