Several important scientific studies over the past two years have confirmed that typical food portions are increasing and that when given larger portions, people will consume them. Published in the Journal of the American Medical Association in January 2003, a study conducted at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill confirmed that portion size has grown significantly over the past two decades. This growth trend goes beyond fast-food restaurants to affect other conventional restaurants as well as home-cooked meals. The rapidly expanding size of the typical meat portion, for example, is contributing to the obesity epidemic and putting roughly one-third of Americans at risk for cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and some cancers. It's easy to see from these studies how educating the public on proper portion control, plate size, and healthy eating habits is important in the battle against obesity. Awareness of the problem and commitment to change are greatly needed as "portion distortion" is sweeping the nation. At Portion Plate, we can help..click here.
