Nutritional fact question

It actually draws calories out of you. So corn actually helps you lose weight.

Humans can’t digest corn. It’s mostly cellulose like celery... you’d need multiple stomachs like a cow to do so. That’s why the corn comes out whole. It’s considered a negative calorie food.

You checked?

They looked whole enough for me to assume

If you eat something that contains x amount of carbs or calories, but then shite out the whole object, did you really just intake said carbs and calories?

For example: peas and corn

You aren't shitting out the whole "object". It's just the corn kernel skin that doesn't get digested well if you don't chew it.

I cant believe so many people are fat using this logic. Why don't they just eet negative calorie foods?



This is some of the most dumbass shite I've seen on this website full of dumbass shite

Yeah, it's asinine. Even celery has like 5 calories per 100g

I think people forget that calories in context of diet are the measurement of energy your body gets from food, and think of foods "containing" calories independent of that, so in that line of thinking celery having 5 calories per 100g, no way you don't burn that off, right?

I think those net calorie estimations include the time spent eating the item.

For example celery might be 5 calories, and you might only burn less than 1 calorie in the processes of chewing and digesting it. However, the rest of your body keeps going while you're eating, and for an average sized man that means burning 1.25 calories per minute at rest. If you spend 3 or 4 minutes eating a stalk of celery, you might be around net zero or negative calories when you're finished.

I mean just imagine getting all your daily calories from eating nothing but hundreds of stalks of celery. If I started at breakfast, I'm pretty sure I'd be ready for bed before I finished eating them all.

Humans without teeth maybe. Sweet corn is easily digested by the human body if you take the time to chew it first.
