Keep food hot on heat retentive plates



HEAT RETENTIVE PLATES
are ceramic plates especially designed to retain or store heat to keep food hot at the table www.HeatStorageDish.com The plates have a core of a material very efficient to absorb microwave energy in only one minute* which then is released as infrared radiation or heat slowly to keep food warm. The plate itself remains hot (still hot) after 30 minutes.

The heat is released slowly using the principles of the Stefan-Boltzmann law and other heat transfer laws applied in the design.

Unbelievably, the plates can be handled safely with the bare hands by the rim which does not get hot.

IMPORTANT: Eating slowly prevents overeating (Which is obviously good for our health)


*In a full size microwave oven (1200Watt)

IMPORTANT NOTE: These Gourmet plates (They improve any hot recipe) have been discovered by caregivers and are being used by ALS and Alzheimer's patients as well as by the elder the sick or anybody that eats slowly for a number of reasons besides enjoying food slowly. Did I tell you eating slowly prevents overeating?

There are just over 4 million citizens of our great province of British Columbia (per 2006 numbers)
19% or 760,000 of us are not just over weight, but are considered obese - >30 BMI
An average of $1400 (US) or $1700 (CDN) additional health care dollars are spent yearly on doctors, prescriptions and other medical procedures for each person classed obese (per latest CDC numbers from the US - I actually suspect Canada spends more because we have a Health Care System that is more accessible) This does not included lost time and productivity dollars. Just in medical costs, that's a total of $1,292,000,000 for BC. Average BC Medical Costs
  • Normal Weight = $3600 yearly
  • Obese = $3600+$1700=$5300 yearly
Gastric/Bariatric surgery cost approximately $15,000 Read the rest>

Experiment proves that eating slowly= eating less

Experiment: 30 women
Eating quickly 646 calories consumed
Eating slowly 579 calories consumed
646/579= 1.11 (11% more calories consumed when eating quickly); read details in link below:

http://life.gaiam.com/gaiam/p/Proof-that-Eating-Slowly-Curbs-Appetite.html

It is kind of funny, in real life If I eat quickly I usually ask for "a little bit more" and I am served 50 t0 70 % more food and at my mother's house I was served 80 to 100% more and guess what? once the food was on the plate it disappeared.

We are simply not trained to eat slowly or to leave food on the plate.

SLOW FOOD PLATES by HOTSMART

The SLOW FOOD MOVEMENT is growing and I believe it will continue growing; the philosophy is correct: Eating healthier 'green" food instead of "fast food" ; fast food will not go away and we actually need it because who has time nowadays, however I believe the movement will influence the fast food chains and people to change their eating habits.

The "slow food movement" is also about enjoying food slowly of course; HotSmart has "plates for eating slowly" or "Slow food plates"; they are the only object in the world that remains still hot after 30 minutes with just one minute preheating in a microwave oven and the rim remains cool for safe handling.

Global Fattening

Global Fattening
Just as global warming, a term that was only a theory just a few years ago, global fattening is taking place right now; we are getting fat. The USA is the most obese country in the world and Mexico is second (Which proves that obesity is not related to riches but bad habits), even in China a country which was mostly lean, they are beginning to have this problem look at this chart.
(I chose it because it is funny and easy to understand):
http://miscellanea.wellingtongrey.net/2007/05/06/global-obesity-fatness-by-country/

I was convinced that eating slowly is part of the solution long before I invented and patented what I called at the time a "Heat Storage Dish" or a "Heat Retentive Plate" (This is I believe a good generic name, but people are not yet familiar with the term).

Anyway, paradoxically my invention the HotSmart plates
was developed because I hate cold tortillas (A nice Mexican fattening food) and I started developing a real good tortilla warmer (The ones on the market today simply do not work because they try to keep the heat from the tortillas from escaping using insulation but the tortillas do not have enough thermal mass to store enough heat by themselves, HotSmart plates are also good tortilla warmers... but that's another story).

Eating slowly gets you satisfied with less tortillas and you do not contribute to global fattening.

HotSmart Slow Food Plates

Slow food
I will not discuss slow food here but briefly
(there is lots of info on the web and is probably as well documented as eating slowly)

Slow Food is an idea, a way of living and a way of eating. It is a global, grassroots movement with thousands of members around the world that links the pleasure of food with a commitment to community and the environment. (Definition from Slow Food USA).
Most plainly stated:
The Slow Food movement was founded by Carlo Petrini in Italy to combat fast food; in other words: instead of eating junk food as fast as we can, the emphasis is on good healthy "green" food enjoyed slowly. This movement is apparently growing fast, what was missing?

HotSmart plates AFTER WEIGHT LOSS SURGERY?

HotSmart

After WLS (weight loss surgery) we have to eat slowly, that is because by means of one of several different procedures available now (Which cost thousands of dollars), the stomach capacity is drastically reduced; and we cannot over eat since the stomach gets full very fast.
WLS forces you to eat slowly, but go to any "After weight loss surgery support group" and you will find out that the experience is not very nice.

My question is: Why don't we start eating slowly now and avoid WLS?

Get a HotSmart plate to keep your food hot, start eating slowly NOW and drink lots of water with your food (you will feel full AND satisfied with less food). Why do you have to have surgery to feel full? I will keep researching...

PLATOS CALIENTES are HOTSMART PLATES

PLATOS CALIENTES, spanish for "hot plates" unfortunately HOT PLATES in English usually means those electric gadgets used to cook, but HOTSMART PLATES are HOT PLATES or PLATOS CALIENTES in Spanish.

They are used for eating slowly, they keep food hot. they are hi tec dishes ok?

Use a HotSmart plate and drink lots of water

The HotSmart plate will keep your food hot and the water will give you a feeling of fullness.
TIP: Eat a couple of spoonfuls of your dessert first, remember when your mother used to tell you: "Do not start eating your dessert or you will not eat well"? (Eat well meant eating like a castaway, no wonder why the USA is the most obese country in the world, Mexico is second)
.

We are almost hardwired to eat fast; do you remember? "eat, eat or your food will get cold"

Eating slowly gets you satisfied with less food

Eating slowly translates to eating less

Study suggests eating slowly translates to eating less USA TODAY
HotSmart Plates keep your food hot while you eat slowly

Plates for eating slowly HotSmart

Eating slowly has many well documented advantages; just type "eating slowly" on your browser to learn about it; it is also so easy to understand why that works, it takes about 20 minutes for your system to produce the hormones that signal your brain that you are satisfied.

The missing link in this eating slowly business was a "plate for keeping food hot" because as you know food gets cold especially if you eat slowly. There are now on the market several brands of "heat retentive plates", or "Plates for eating slowly" they could even be called "WLS plates" since they can be a great tool for weight loss surgery patients.

More later...
