Negative calorie foods? Sounds too good to be true. But it turns out there might be something to it. The thermogenic effect of food is the calories and energy your body uses digesting it, which for very low calorie foods might mean -- MIGHT! -- that you expend more energy than you take in. Frankly, I think tossing around the phrase "negative calories" is fraught with peril so I would prefer to simply think of these as foods to include in your diet every day and in as large a quantity as you can manage. Plus, they're loaded with vitamins, antioxidants, and fiber. What a dealski!
