Negative calorie foods can burn more calories than are contained in the nutrient content of the food. Due to high-water density and rich fibre content low-calorie foods such as ‘celery’ require a lot of energy to digest.
Even though this issue sparks a debate among nutritionists, one thing is sure: apart from nutritious low-calorie vegetables and fruits, a balanced diet including muscle-building foods is also necessary.
Calorie Burning Foods
Low-calorie high-fibre foods fill the stomach and increase satiety, providing you with energy for the day. Nutritionists recommend eating 25g (women) and 38g (men) of fibre per day.
- Celery (16 calories in 100 g), this vegetable is 75% water and 25% fiber. It contains potassium and sodium, making it the ideal constituent of a post-workout drink for electrolyte replacement.
- Cauliflower (25 calories in 100 g) is high in vitamins C and K and rich in fiber.
- Asparagus (20 calories in 100 g) also contains nutrients for boosting metabolism.
- Cucumber (16 calories in 100 g) is good for preventing water retention as it contains ascorbic and caffeic acid.
- Raw cabbage (21 calories in 100 g) is also known to have cholesterol-lowering properties.
Other top fibre rich foods include berries, beans, sweet peas and whole grains.
Metabolism Boosting Drinks
- Water is the first drink you should relate to burning calories. If you do not drink enough of it, your metabolism slows down.
- An American Journal of Clinical Nutrition study proved that green tea has thermogenic properties promoting fat oxidation. Thermogenesis is a process during which the body burns calories while absorbing the food we eat.
- More research about caffeine and coffee suggests that the thermic effect of the meal as well as fat oxidation were significantly greater after coffee than after decaffeinated coffee.
- Also worth a mention – grapefruit juice, reduces high insulin levels, which helps the body metabolize fat more effectively.
Muscle-Building Foods
Muscle-building foods contain protein, the most abundant element making up our body if we exclude water protein.
- One egg has 6g of protein and all of the eight amino acids needed for muscle recovery and building minerals, such as calcium, iron and zinc.
- Nuts are a perfect blend of unsaturated fats, protein and fibre.
- Cottage cheese is an ideal dietary supplement for muscle building, as it contains casein, a type of protein which slowly digests in the body, as well as good bacteria, whose function is to break down nutrients.
- Salmon is rich in high quality protein and Omega-3 fatty acids, which prevent muscle breakdown.
- Kefir is a better option than regular milk because it has probiotics which help with digestion.
- When it comes to meat, 1 serving (28g) of lean beef has only 53 calories providing your body with nutrients, like iron, vitamin B and zinc, protein and a high level of amino acids.
Natural Protein
Proteins are more thermogenic than carbohydrates and fats as shown by a 2002 study. This is good news for carnivores the world over. The most recommended meats are lean beef, pork, chicken and turkey. White meat is especially beneficial.
