Our mind often forms
“Mental short-cuts“
which lead to automatic
responses to particular life
situations. When these are
Negative and Self-defeating,
they are known as NATS or
“Negative Automatic Thoughts”
Over time, these develop into
Negative Thinking Patterns.

- Definition:
- When we believe that a single unit of any item is the “normal” amount to consume.
- This mental trick can lead us to consume more or less food than we should, depending on the size of the item.
- Examples:
- We are more likely to consume an entire bag of chips, even if it contains multiple servings, simply because it is presented as a single unit.
- We may be less likely to consume a single piece of fruit, even if it is a recommended serving size, because it feels like a small amount.
- Result:
- Unit Bias can lead to unhealthy eating habits, as well as other negative behaviors such as overspending or excessive drinking.
- Management:
- Be aware of recommended serving sizes and pay attention to the actual amount of a substance being consumed.
- Portion control and mindful eating practices can also help us avoid overconsumption and make healthier choices.
- Additionally, we can reframe our perception of what constitutes a “normal” amount of a given item by seeking out information and education about serving sizes and healthy habits.
