The Mandometer isn’t just any scale, it’s a talking scale. Developed by the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, this talking scale is linked to an electronic plate and speaks to you to help monitor food consumption.
The Mandometer comes compete with a plate and an electronic scale, which weighs your food and uses graphs to show how quickly you’re eating. The talking plate will ask you to slow down and eat less. When used in conjunction with physical exercise, Mandometer was found to be effective in combating obesity in children and teens.
