The Theory Behind Diets Using Negative Calories

We can have a diet using negative calories. The main idea is
that our body uses more calories to digest some aliments than
the calories we know those aliments contain themselves by
analyzing the combination of nutritional components of the
specific aliments. If we burn more calories than we consume,
then we will lose weight.

The theory is in fact very appealing: the body has to consume
energy in order to digest the food. For example, an orange has
about 50 calories. To process all nutritional components and
vitamins that an orange contains, our body will burn more than
just 50 calories.

The diet using negative calories is more a solution we can call
on in some specific periods, when our body is overwhelmed with
nutrition, like holidays, Christmas, New Year's, birthdays,
weddings, and less of a solution that can be used on a long
term.

Some specialists say that the lost of weight is obtained mostly
by losing parts of the muscular tissue, which is not recommended
at all.

So if you decide to use the diet with negative calories keep in
mind the following:

1 - Make sure it is done in a period your body has already too
many calories stored and you won't be affecting your health by
doing this.

2 - Ask a medic if you can resist only eating this types of
aliments and also ask him the time limit for this diet in your
case so you can avoid getting sick.

3 - Try to combine them as much as you can, do not eat just
oranges or other fruits that contain citric acid as they are
not good for your stomach activity when eaten in huge
quantities.

4 - Review your schedule for the days you want to use this diet
and make sure you don't have any important or stressful things
to do. Stress also causes caloric burn and weight reduction and
if it occurs during a diet that weakens the organism you can
feel physically powerless. If such a thing happens give up on
the diet and eat something with many calories and glucoses
fast.

If all above points are checked and passed you can start a
negative calories diet and give a try to actually eating
something instead of taking slim pills and drinking tea.
