Is Instagram Helping People With Dieting?

Description

A new study by the University of Washington is reportedly looking into how Instagram users turn to posting pictures of food they eat to meet weight loss goals. For the study, researchers conducted interviews with at least 16 Instagram users who consistently record and share photos of what they eat. Participants in the study reportedly talked about the benefits of using Instagram to achieve their diet and fitness goals. Christina Chung, a doctoral student at UW, said in a press release, "It's more socially appropriate for people who are trying to track their diets to snap a photo of their plate when they're out with friends -- everyone's doing it and it doesn't look weird."
