Green vegetables. advice please.
« on: September 25, 2007, 06:57:25 AM »
I was told that when dieting, green vegetables are a "free food". that you could eat as much of them as you wanted and they would not inhibit your fat loss progress. so...for example...could i walk around eating a bunch of broccoli al day and expect to lose just as much weight as if i hadnt eaten a bunch of broccoli?

I heard brocolli is a negative calorie food. It takes more calories to burn it than the brocolli has within itself....which means you burn more calories ;)

Just make sure you get the Baby Brocolli Florets, not the regular ones.  the baby florets are slightly more expensive but much easier to eat.

The florets are nutritionally superior as well.
