Negative calorie foods

The concept of negative calorie food is wrong. There is no real negative calorie food.

The calorie of food refers to the energy contained in food. The human body consumes a certain amount of energy in the process of digestion, absorption and metabolism of food, but the energy consumed is usually much less than the energy contained in the food itself. Even though certain foods may consume more energy during digestion, they still provide positive calorie intake overall.

Furthermore, the body's metabolic process is a complex system that depends not only on the calorie content of the food. Other factors, such as basal metabolic rate, physical activity level, hormone balance, etc., can affect energy consumption and storage.

To control weight and achieve a healthy diet, the key is to maintain a balanced diet with adequate intake of various nutrients combined with appropriate physical activity. Choose nutrient-rich, low-calorie-dense foods such as vegetables, fruits, whole grains, protein-rich foods, etc., and control overall calorie intake to meet your body's needs without excessive intake.
