Portion Size Strategies for Management of Body Weight

14. mai 2015 oppdatert av: Barbara J. Rolls, Penn State University

The primary aim of this research is to determine the efficacy of two portion-control strategies to achieve sustainable dietary and behavior changes and to promote weight loss and maintenance. A randomized controlled trial will test two approaches to managing portion sizes: one that gives individuals skills and tools to help them make appropriate portion choices, and another that focuses on consumption of pre-portioned foods in order to limit exposure to large portions in the personal food environment. A third group will receive a basic nutritional program to promote weight loss.

The second aim of the research is to determine the effects of the programs on knowledge and consumption of appropriate portions, as assessed by innovative assessment methods and multiple-pass dietary recalls. The third aim is to conduct exploratory analyses of individual factors that may influence the response to the portion-control interventions, such as psychosocial indicators, blood biomarkers, and measures of adherence to the interventions. The expected outcome of the project is that it will lead to the development of specific, evidence-based strategies to help control portion sizes in order to manage weight.

Våpen og intervensjoner

Deltakergruppe / Arm
Intervensjon / Behandling
Eksperimentell: Portion size instruction
Advice on diet, physical activity, and behavior change. Instruction in food portion size.
Individuals will participate in individual sessions with Registered Dietitians providing basic instruction in principles of weight loss. The program will instruct individuals on the principles of healthy eating and nutrition during calorie restriction. These materials include one module with general information on the importance of limiting portion sizes. The program will also include instruction on physical activity and behavioral strategies for weight loss.
Individuals assigned to this program will participate in individual instructional sessions with specialized materials and tools that address food selection and choosing appropriate portion sizes of various foods.
Eksperimentell: Pre-portioned foods
Advice on diet, physical activity, and behavior change. Provision of pre-portioned foods.
Individuals will participate in individual sessions with Registered Dietitians providing basic instruction in principles of weight loss. The program will instruct individuals on the principles of healthy eating and nutrition during calorie restriction. These materials include one module with general information on the importance of limiting portion sizes. The program will also include instruction on physical activity and behavioral strategies for weight loss.
Individuals assigned to this program will be provided with commercially available pre-portioned foods and will be taught effective ways to incorporate them into their daily diet.
