new product has come on market for those wanting digital solution to losing weight – fork. A Hong Kong company, HAPILABS, has showcased its HAPIfork at Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, USA. wireless fork keeps track of your dining habits, including your eating speed, and then downloads data via USB or Bluetooth to your iPhone or PC. purpose of fork is to help you eat more slowly. It tells you how long it took to eat your meal, amount of “fork servings" taken per minute, and intervals between "fork servings". If you are eating too fast, fork will vibrate to let you know to slow down. The HAPIfork weighs 65 grams and is on sale for $99.

HAPILABS was founded by former French pole vaulter Fabrice Boutain. He explained benefits of his new product, saying: "What is important is you take enough time to chew food well." He added: "By chewing well, you will help digestion. There was study in United States in 2006 showing that people eating more slowly will eat 11 per cent fewer calories. So this is how we can help us lose weight." HAPILABS spokesman Andrew Carton said: "Eating too fast, and insufficient mastication has been tied to all sorts of problems, including…weight gain." company's website says there are many scientific studies that highlight negative effects related to eating meals too quickly.
