There are certain types of food which when consumed, actually burn more fat than the calorific value of the food itself. These kinds of foods are also known as negative calorie foods. They are classified into three different groups such as the citrus group – consisting of lemons, limes, tangerines, grapefruit, oranges, kiwi fruit etc, the cellulose rich fruits and vegetables group consisting of cabbage, asparagus, beetroot, broccoli, blueberries, apple, watermelon etc and the dairy group of foods including non fat milk, white cheese and low fat yogurt. As far as dairy products are concerned, they have clinically proved it that calcium rich dairy foods help in weight loss by increasing the breakdown of fat in fat cells.
