calorie
a particular dish on the menu fast food restaurants, or makes people think about the food they consume. Around 15 thousand people in the survey discovered that those who had read about calorie foods consumed less than those who have not watched this information.
Early such research conducted by the Department of Health of New York in 2007, when it was questioned about 7 thousand people, and then in 2009 - 8500. Polls are due by law, in connection with which restaurants are obliged to give information on the calorie content of their menu products.
As a result, it became known that 15% of clients from 168 institutions (and 11 institutions from the retail network) used label indicating calories. As a result, the 15% "missed" 106 calories.
However, any special achievements with the adoption of the law has not been fixed. The average number of calories eaten before and after the law has hardly changed, other customers of restaurants, on the contrary, began to consume more high-calorie food.
Experts believe that was going on in the owners of restaurants and other catering establishments. Many of these owners specifically "put" people on a high-calorie food through increased portions of food at a reasonable price for customers. Thus, to solve one of the most pressing issues - reducing caloric intake to combat obesity Americans have so far failed.
