That’s right everyone, there’s such a thing as foods that can help you burn calories!!! I personally did some research into it but after a while I found one manual that contained a complete guide to the best fat burning foods.

Below though, I wanted to give you a brief introduction on foods that burn calories. Remember to be safe whenever you try to change your diet and always consult a physician for expert advice. :)

So, yes … we can have a diet using negative calories (fat burning foods). 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.

Therefore, 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 a diet with negative calories keep in mind the following:

  • 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.
  • Ask your doctor 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.
  • 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.
  • 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 glucose fast.

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

Til next time, remember to include some great fat burning exercises as well and to keep safe.

Below is some information that I found about several weight loss products. I tried my best to provide the pros and cons of each product because I tried several of them before I was able to lose weight.

Even counting calories didn’t work for me until I found a detailed manual on how to lose fat for good. Anyways, I hope you find the following information useful.

There are a lot of weight loss products that offer fast fat burning results, however, are these really guaranteed?  Could these products live up to their assurance of a fit and thin body?

In the US, there is an estimated 50 million people who try to lose weight, unfortunately, only 5 percent are successful.  One thing’s for sure, beware of fraudulent claims and extreme high cost because there is no magic to losing weight.

Samples of weight loss products in the market nowadays:

  • Diet Patch – this was already removed since 1990’s by FDA since they were proven ineffective.
  • Magnetic Diet Pills – allegedly flushes out fat, but not.
  • Guar Gum – causes internal obstruction.
  • Electrical Muscle Simulators – no proven effect.
  • Eyeglasses that Suppress Appetite – These claims that the projected image on the retina decreases appetite.  No proven fact.
  • Weight loss earrings – through acupuncture, suppresses appetite.

There are also examples of weight loss products:

  1. Diet drinks that are mixed with beverages or food are used as meal substitutes.  A downside of this is that once a person stopped taking the drinks, they would eventually regain the lost weight after a short period of time due to feeling of emptiness in the stomach.
  2. Another is diet supplements and medicines that also don’t work long-term.  Over-the-counter pills that compose of phenylpropanolamine hydrochloride may raise blood pressure and palpitation.  Ephedra on the other hand can cause serious side effects such as heart problems, seizure, stroke, and even death. Other examples include:
  • Herbalife Nutritional Program – good as two meals, dieters may rely on shakes and follow artificial dieting methods and just don’t want food to work into their lives.
  • Mega-Thin 100 Formula – Its formula contains an anti-fat weapon, however, diet is not emphasized that’s why it’s concluded that it has an appetite suppressant.
  • Nestlé’s Sweet Success – recommended to take three times a day and it does not promote healthy eating habits.  Weight loss is difficult to maintain once intake is stopped.
  • Ultra Slim Fast – this plan requires regular exercise but does not teach good eating habits.
  • Diet pills with Ephedra and PPA – many of these have enclosed diet plans.  Slimming can come from the diet plan and not the pill intake and there are risks of adverse side effects.
  • Chitosan products – contains fibers which were taken from shellfish that may cause diarrhea, bloatedness, and gas.  This will only work if a low fat diet is practiced.
  • Chromium Supplements –claim that products will lower blood sugar, body fat and cholesterol but causes anemia and even memory loss.  Studies show only minimal or no beneficial effect at all.
  • Green Tea Extract Products – known as strong anti-oxidants that help lower cholesterol and triglycerides, and promote weight loss, however, the caffeine content could cause insomnia and restlessness.
  • Algae Tablets – Spirulina contains significant nutrients that can be an acceptable food when used as part of a varied diet but are very expensive.
  • St. John’s Wort Supplement – Claims that it will suppress appetite and promote weight loss but it could lead to gastrointestinal discomfort, tiredness, sleeplessness, and arouse allergic reactions.
  • Glucomannan Products – claim that two capsules before each meal decrease food absorption.  Known as food thickeners but not yet proven safe or effective.  Weight loss will only happen if good diet plan is followed.

Even if you plan on using over-the-counter weight supplements or even participate in a weight loss activity, the verdict is that you still have to eat fewer calories than you burn to lose weight. When choosing a weight loss product or program, collect as much information as possible.

This is why, for me, the best choice I ever made was getting a detailed manual on the best fat burning foods and the best fat burning exercise program possible to lose weight.

Whatever, you decided to do, make sure it is safe for you.

Until next time.
