Simple menu addition promotes better food choices

[Flyn]

This is interesting. Just by adding the walk time necessary to burn off menu item calories to menus, diners are ordering and eating less and better foods.

If you knew it would take two hours of intensive walking to burn off that dessert tempting you at dinnertime, would you still choose it?
A new study finds that restaurant guests who look at menus that show them an estimate of how much exercise is needed to burn off calories tend to choose lower-calorie options.
Researchers at Texas Christian University recently conducted a study of 300 men and women under the age of 30. They broke them into three groups, giving each group a menu with the same food choices.

One group received a regular menu; the second received a menu that listed the calories of each food item; the third got a menu that listed the calories as well as the number of minutes of brisk walking needed to burn those calories.
The study found that the people who got the third menu not only tended to order less, they also ate less compared to those who got the menu without calorie labels.

I'm sure that's the case, but it doesn't matter because a restaurant would never do it. It's their job to sell a product, in this case food. it's our job to control what we put in our bodies

This study is very right and awesome. I also often check nutrition facts of foods that I eat. This help me control my menu and weight effectively. I apperciate nutritious and low calorie food. Thus squash is my favorite choice. In general, squash is very low calorie in its content because 100 grams of raw summer squash contain only 16 kcal. It is also very little in fat. However, It provides a diversity of vitamins, some of which exist in considerable amounts. Top benefits of squash can conclude immune system improvement, eye health and lung health enhancement as well as weight loss.
