# Portion Controlling Bowls This Elegant Wooden Bowl Encourages Healthy Homemade Meals By Ady Floyd | Published 2015-09-10 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooden-bowl References: [packagingoftheworld](http://www.packagingoftheworld.com/2015/09/123healthy.html) & [behance.net](https://www.behance.net/gallery/14763445/assure-to-eat) Designer Lee Chieh created the 123Healthy product which is a unique wooden bowl that encourages home cooking with a heightened sense of portion control. The wooden bowl boasts an elegant and simple appearance that will appeal to a variety of consumers. The bowl is designed with a unique focus on depth and material thickness. The wood itself is made to contain the perfect amount of food which the body needs to stay healthy -- this ensures each user does not over indulge. The thickness of the bowl also plays a key factor by ensuring that each meal stays at the [correct temperature](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thermal-serving-dish). The 123Healthy bowl makes sure cool items stay cool and hot items retain heat. The idea for this project was inspired by the lack of [healthy and local ingredients](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supergrain-bowls) being used in the artist's hometown. While many restaurants claim to serve healthy items, Lee Chieh found a shortage of appealing eateries that cater to nutrition and weight maintenance. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.8/10 - Popularity: 39% | Activity: 37% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Portion Control:** This trend addresses the growing need for portion control in promoting healthier eating habits. - **Sustainable Cookware:** This trend highlights the demand for eco-friendly and aesthetically pleasing kitchen products. - **Temperature Control:** This trend explores the innovation of products that maintain food at the ideal temperature for optimal enjoyment. ### Where This Applies - **Kitchenware:** The kitchenware industry can tap into the demand for portion controlling bowls to create a range of innovative and practical products. - **Food Delivery Services:** Food delivery services can incorporate portion controlling bowls into their offerings to cater to customers seeking healthier meal options. - **Wellness and Nutrition:** The wellness and nutrition industry can leverage the concept of portion control and develop educational programs or apps to promote balanced eating habits. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Freshness-Preserving Bowls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eternos-serving-bowl.md) - [Intelligent Maze-Style Dog Bowls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hank-pet-bowl.md) - [Health-Focused Rice Cookers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-rice-cooker-concept.md) - [Imperfect Pasta Bowl Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pasta-bowl.md) - [Display-Centric Dynamic Fruit Bowls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/circuit.md) - [Health-Focused Pet Bowls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doggy-diner.md) - [Designer Pet Bowls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smallserve.md) - [Artisanal Wooden Kitchen Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooden-kitchen-tools.md) - [Health-Focused Dog Food Bowls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trot-puzzle-slow-feeder.md)
