Diet types

The low-cal diet

In short, the low calorie diet is based on the fact that if you intend to become thinner, it is essential to injest less calories than you actually use.

Definition of a calorie?
A calorie is a measurement of the energy provided by food. The 'calorie' is the the amount of energy required to raise one cubic centimeter of water by one degree centigrade. If a food has more calories, then it will turn into a larger amount of energy when your body burns it.

Low calorie foods include cabbage, carrots, melon, burgers and steaks, and low-fat cheese.
