Dieting 101

Low calorie diet

Rather obviously, the low calorie diet states that in order to lose weight, the important thing to eat fewer calories than your body requires.

So what is a calorie?
The calorie is a unit for measuring food's ability to produce heat and energy. A 'calorie' is the the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree celsius. If a food type has more calories, then it will turn into more energy to use when your body burns it.

Foods low in calories include cabbage, cucumbers, apricots, burgers and steaks, and bamboo shoots.
