Yes. Most people believe that you lose calories in chewing, but it's actually the digestion process that burns calories.

It is properly called a negative food. It does take more calories to eat AND digest it than it contains.

but still even if it does burn calories, burning calories isn't as good as eating it! :-) (i love it!)

It won't help you lose weight, only to make your diet healthier. Exercise does that. Raw celery is negative calories and can help you lose weight.


Can you lose weight by eating celery?

Let's say one stalk of celery has about 40-60 calories, but it takes your body about 70-90 calories to process it through. If you do the math, it's about 20-30 negative calories. In order to lose one pound, you need to burn about 3000-3500 calories. So yes, if you eat nothing BUT celery you will lose weight. But if you eat few stalks a day without proper diet or exercise, it's not going to make any difference. You do the math how much celery you would need to eat in order to lose 1 pound.


How much celery do you need to eat to lose 2 pounds?

It's not significant at all. It's about 5 calories per piece. And celery doesn't burn the calories, it's because it takes more calories to digest the celery than the celery has in it. So if you're eating celery, it's basically just like drinking water. And to lose weight you need to exercise. If you only diet without exercising, you'll have extra fat everywhere. And if you exercise without changing your diet, you'll have a bigger appetite. :)
