You’ve got your reading glasses and your sunglasses – but what about your diet glasses?


Before you reach for that donut – grab your diet glasses... 

They’re one of the latest diet fads Japanese scientists are taking a look at. Diet glasses are supposed to help curb your appetite by making your food look bigger. These high-tech specs have a built-in camera system that morphs the size of your bites as they get closer to your mouth. Volunteers who wore the diet glasses while eating a plate of cookies claimed they felt satisfied sooner and resisted polishing off the plate. 

The diet glasses worked best with symmetrical food like cookies or donuts. odd shaped food such as a banana posed more of a problem by confusing the eater.
