How is that possible ?
Negative calorie here means that these type of food costs the body more calorie in its digestion process rather than what it is getting from the food itself. Interesting isn’t it.
For example : a portion of fresh fruit gives you 200g calories, but 100g of it are burnt during the process to digest it, leaving 100g of calorie left. But a portion of broccoli only gives you 60g of calorie while it takes the body to burn 100g of calorie to digest it. So the broccoli is actually a negative calorie food. Many vegetables, fruits, and beans, are foods with negative calorie. Onion, cabbage, lettuce, tomato, apple, orange, pineapple, cranberry, gooseberry, etc.
Eating foods with negative calorie is believed to reduce weight faster than taking regular diet. This statement is hard to prove but at least the concept of negative calorie is completely make sense to me.
If you wish to reduce your weight aside from those negative calorie foods, to help the body metabolism, oxygen consumption must also be increased by doing exercise, aerobics, jogging, or any other physical sports.
