| Publisher Description: Negative calorie foods, which burn more fat and calories than they contribute, are a myth. But these low-calorie foods and recipes come close. Eat them several times a day for fast, easy weight loss. For example ASPARAGUS Asparagus Salad With Sweet Balsamic Vinegar Asparagus And Mixed Greens Salad Cherry Tomato and Asparagus Salad KALE Kale With Roasted Peppers and Olives Vegetable Barley Soup Kale Smoothie ....... Asparagus Calories: 27 per cup Asparagus is traditionally known as a detoxifying food, because it contains high levels of an amino acid that acts as a diuretic, flushing excess fluid out of your system. It also helps speed the metabolism of alcohol and other toxins. Asparagus is also a powerhouse of vitamins and minerals, including vitamins A, C, E, and K, B6, folate, iron, copper, and even protein. We love the tender shoots in their most natural form, raw and tossed into salads, or steamed. Kale Calories: 5 per cup Kale is possibly the healthiest superfood around, packing a widevariety of phytonutrients that may prevent cancer, including breast cancer. (Scientsits theorize that the phytonutrients in kale trigger the liver to produce enzymes that neutralize potentially cancer-causing substances.) Kale is also a great source of B vitamins, folic acid, and manganese, which helps regulate blood sugar and is essential for proper immune system function. .......
