If something has higher calories, then it will provide your body with more energy when your body converts it. Low calorie food types include green beans, cucumbers, water melon, ground turkey, and low-fat cheese. Foods containing allyl sulfides ( includes pickled shallots, leeks and welsh onion) The onion range of vegetables is rich in allyl sulphides, a chemical which experts believe could be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer.
