A few weeks but I gathered Cocacola and Nestle promoting Enviga drink. But here is more interesting news.

........Enviga, a new carbonated green tea beverage, claims that it burns more calories than it provides, resulting in "negative calories." But the nonprofit food watchdog group, the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI), says that Enviga burns money, and over the long term is more likely to result in a negative bank balance than negative calories. Today CSPI served notice on Coca-Cola and Nestle, the companies behind Enviga, that it will sue them if they continue to market the drink with fraudulent calorie-burning and weight loss claims......

Negative calories, even if they did exist, would vary from person to person depending on your metabolism. A person with a much higher metabolism would probably burn my calories digesting something than one with a much lower metabolism. As with most nutrition info though, this fact remains to be tested.

Anything that comes out of a factory claiming to aid weight loss is dubious. THe best way to maintain a healthy weight is good old-fashioned diet and exercise.

If anyone is stupid enough to believe the hype (to the word) that companies make to sell their product, they deserve to go bankrupt for being sheep and following the bandwagon.
