Eating with health conscious people makes you eat healthy

Going to a restaurant with friends in good health would be the key to eating in a healthy way. To state is an American study

At the University of Illinois a study has been conducted, stating that if you go to the restaurant in a group you tend to select the same dishes from the same menu categories. The study, presented at the annual meeting of the Agricultural and Applied Economic Association, pointed out that the phenomenon seems to be linked to the common desire to belong to a group.

“People – a researcher explained – want to be different, but not so different. They seek harmony with those at dinner with them”.

The “peer pressure” can, therefore, make tablemates of people eating in a healthy way feed themselves properly, too.
