Negative calories, even if they did exist, would vary from person to person depending on your metabolism. A person with a much higher metabolism would probably burn my calories digesting something than one with a much lower metabolism. As with most nutrition info though, this fact remains to be tested.Anything that comes out of a factory claiming to aid weight loss is dubious. THe best way to maintain a healthy weight is good old-fashioned diet and exercise.
