Kissing is fun, but is it good for you? More specifically, how many calories does it burn. Just like exercise, the number of calories you burn while kissing depends on the effort you put in.
Experts estimate that you burn between 1.5 and 2 calories per minute while kissing someone. If you want to burn more than that, put some passion in it.
Some tips for burning more calories: stand rather than sit while kissing, and watch your breath. If you're out of breath, you are burning more calories.
The Long Kiss Goodnight
A vigorous kiss that involves some petting could burn as many as 90 calories per hour, reports WomansDay.com, a figure that computes to 1.5 calories per minute. The IndiaTimes website suggests that kissing can burn 120 calories per hour, which amounts to 2 calories per minute. You probably won't drop pounds just by kissing, but it won't hurt either.
