Description
Foods That Make You Lose Weight or Negative Calories by Isabelle Martin is a diet and cookery book centred on low-calorie foods and their use in weight management. It focuses on foods such as celery, lettuce, broccoli, grapefruit and apples, which are presented in the book as “negative calorie” foods that may help with weight loss.
The book combines practical weight-management advice with meal-planning guidance and recipes designed to incorporate these foods into everyday meals. While the book reflects the popular “negative calorie” diet concept, this idea is not supported by modern nutritional science; the book is therefore best viewed in the context of its approach to low-calorie, fruit- and vegetable-based eating.
A good choice for readers interested in diet books, historical weight-loss trends, low-calorie cooking and plant-focused recipes.
