Japanese Secrets of slim, youthful beauty and health

Smaller food portions

In Japan, food is generally served on small plates and bowls instead of one big plate. Research has proven that you tend to eat more when you’re served more - whether you planned to and were hungry for food or not. In fact, scientists from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, found that people eat up to 45 per cent more food when served bigger portions.
