What we see is what we eat

If you want to lose weight, but you can’t seem to eat less, try one simple way: after putting food on plates, immediately remove the pan (or a common dish) from the dining table.

If you want to lose weight, but you can’t seem to eat less, try one simple way: after putting food on plates, immediately remove the pan (or a common dish) from the dining table. Observing the eating behavior of different people, Cornell University (USA) psychologist Brian Wansink noticed that, without seeing a pot or pan with food, we rarely put ourselves in an additive. As a result, we consume fewer calories: women – by 20%, men – by 29%. This method also works when, on the contrary, we want our family, for example, to eat more fruits and vegetables. When there is a plate of fruits and vegetables on the table, we would rather eat an apple or a carrot than a piece of cake hidden in the refrigerator.
