Difficult to control eating and easily seduced by the form of delicious food in the restaurant or buffet? Do not worry , recent studies have found an easy and effective way to resist the desire to overeat . Eating healthy foods such as fruit , salad or
yogurt as an appetizer can lead people to choose a healthy menu for the
main course or the next . This method not only reduces your calorie intake , but also make people less interested in eating fatty foods and high-calorie .
On
the other hand , dieters who start eating the junk food , tend
menyanyap 31 percent more food when switching to the main course . The first menu we eat will affect two
thirds contents of food will we do next .The study was conducted by asking respondents to line up in front of the buffet breakfast which provides seven menu . There are two tables with different menu options , a distance of 15 meters apart .
The
first line in the table presented sequentially cheese eggs , hash
browns , bacon , cinnamon rolls , granola, low-calorie , low-fat yogurt
and fruit last . While
in the second table , the fruit is on the order at the front , then
low-fat yogurt , low-fat granola , eggs, cheese , hash browns , bacon
and cinnamon rolls .Once ushered into the room , 124 respondents chose breakfast freed they want from one of the buffet tables are available . But they are only allowed to take one time in one buffet table .The researchers found that the order of the food served at the buffet food was very influenced respondents choose . A total of 86.4 percent of respondents took the fruit when it was presented first in the buffet . But only 54.8 percent who took the fruit when it is presented in the final sequence .Meanwhile
75.4 percent of respondents took the egg cheese when served at the
front , while only 28.8 percent chose it as being on back order . The first three foods that someone took from the buffet
table to meet 66 percent of the total contents of his plate . It contains both high and low calorie foods .There is a pretty interesting relationship between the first food that was served with what respondents taken thereafter . Researchers call it a ' trigger effect' or trigger effect . The person who took the first egg cheese , tend to fill the plate with fatty foods as well as fried potatoes and bacon . But the person who took the first fruit not choose to eat the next meal .
Therefore
, the two researchers suggest to always start the meal with a salad of
vegetables or fruit so that 2/3 of your plate will be filled with lots
of healthy food .
