AN amazing new invention can help you shape up without diet or exercise.

GETTY

Serving up your meals on this magical piece of crockery can help you slim down without even trying.

Diet experts believe that a special crinkly plate could help slimmers battle the bulge because it tricks the mind into thinking it holds a lot of food.

The plate has ridges and troughs which reduce the dishs surface area so it secretly slashes the amount of food that can be piled on to it.

When you look at the platter from above, it appears the same as any other plate so slimmers will still enjoy the appearance of a full meal.

Product designer Nauris Cinovics, from the Art Academy of Latvia, believes the plate could help dieters shed pounds and he plans to test his theory in a trial of 100 people.

Obesity experts agreed with the clever designer, saying the plate could be a useful weight loss tool and act as an alternative to choosing smaller plates.

Our brain takes at least 20 minutes to receive the message that we should feel full

Dr Paul Christiansen, from the University of Liverpool's school of psychology, said: "This seems like a good idea.

"If people think they have eaten a full plate of food, they will feel more satisfied. Many people think you have to finish the food on the plate.

"If you can satisfy the perception that they have a nice big portion on their plate, they will think they have eaten a full meal.

"For 'plate clearers' if you can feed the perception that you have a reasonable amount of food, they may eat less."

Professor Charles Spence, a behavioural psychologist at the University of Oxford who specialises in the perception of food and taste, added: "This is definitely a nice idea.

There are a number of ways of tricking the eye, from use of smaller plates to make it look like there is more, through heavier bowls.

"The crinkle plate seems to provide much same impression, though I do worry how you get the bits out that fall in crevices."

The folds and dips in the revolutionary dish are also designed to slow down the speed of eating.

Nauris said: "My idea is how to make food appear bigger than it is.

"If you make the plate three-dimensional, with the ridges and troughs, it actually looks like there is the same amount of food as on a normal plate, but there is less of it.

"You are tricking the brain into thinking you are eating more."

The inventor has also come up with a heavy cutlery range to slow down eating, including a knife, fork and spoon weighing 1.3kg each.

Nauris said: "We tested this and it took 11 minutes to finish a meal with this cutlery, rather than seven minutes.

"Our brain takes at least 20 minutes to receive the message that we should feel full, so if we eat really fast, we think we need more food.

"If we eat slowly, the message that we're full gets through sooner, so we eat less."
