The secret to staying slim by eating as much as you want is to use small plates to serve food

At an all-you-can-eat buffet, do you accidentally eat too much? American scholars have observed that when overweight people go to an all-you-can-eat restaurant, they will immediately pick up something they like and eat it, but slim people will first walk around the restaurant to look at all the dishes before choosing what to pick up, and they will use small plates to serve the food.

Although there is no absolute correlation, nutritionists say that it is easy to eat more than 2 or 3 times the amount of food if you eat too fast in a short period of time.

Foreign studies have shown that dining habits are actually related to weight. For example, when two people go to the steak area of ​​a buffet, one considers for a long time, while the other just accepts everything and puts it all on his plate.

Carefully observing the habits of the two people, one would stop and put something on his plate when he saw a dish he liked, while the other would walk around the area first, look at the raw and cooked food areas, and dessert areas, and then selectively take something. As a result, one person took 4 plates and the other took 2.

Comparing the plates on the table, people with a heavier build eat almost twice as much food as those with a slimmer build, which is consistent with the observations and research of American scholars.

Taichung Hospital nutritionist Chang Chia-hua said, "If you eat a large amount quickly during these 20 to 40 minutes, you will eat 2 to 3 times more than if you chew your food slowly."

If you don't want to gain weight from eating too much, nutritionists suggest that in addition to chewing your food slowly when eating, you can also use small plates to hold food, or walk around more often to choose the food you want to eat, and start improving your eating habits without even noticing it.
