Eating foods such as fruits that are low in calories per cup instead of some other higher-calorie food may be useful in helping to lower calorie intake true or fals?
It is true. High calorie foods tend to have fats and sugars that contain many more calories than fruit. The sugars contained in fruit also hold less calories than normal sugar. It will also help keep the sugar cravings at bay if you are trying to diet. Bear in mind that some fruits such as bananas tend to have quite a lot of calories in (over 100). A low calorie diet does not necessarily mean eating low calorie foods. The higher calorie foods can be very good for you.

In itself - it doesn't.But if you drink it instead of something with more calories in it, it will.Weight loss is pretty much all about eating and drinking fewer calories than you use up during the day, and lemon water, being low in calories, can help keep your calorie intake down - but only if it's used instead of something with more calories in it.Trying to cancel out a chocolate bar by having a jug of lemon water isn't going to work.
