The Portion Plate™ and the Roles of Portion & Proportion
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. Portion size has grown significantly over the past two decades and that this growth trend goes beyond fast-food restaurants to affect meals in homes and other conventional restaurants. Portion control is greatly needed as "portion distortion" is sweeping the nation. This leads to the serious problem facing almost one-third of the UK today...obesity. Obesity leads to many health risks including cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and some cancers. It's easy to see from these studies how important educating the public on proper portion size is in the battle against obesity. This product is now being used by the NHS
