The Importance of Portion Control by Marion Nestle

11/21/2017

What is the importance of size in our portions? What is the best way to judge portions when going out to dinner?
Easy. Large portions make you eat more. If I could teach just one thing about nutrition, it would be this: Larger portions have more calories. Funny? Portion size is anything but obvious. Research repeatedly confirms that larger food servings not only provide more calories but also have two other effects. They encourage people to eat more and to underestimate how much they are eating.
