Mindless Eating (Brian Wansink)

"Mindless Eating," by Brian Wansink, explores how our eating habits are often influenced by subconscious cues rather than true hunger. It highlights how factors like plate size, packaging, and environmental surroundings can lead us to consume more without realizing it. Wansink emphasizes that small changes—such as using smaller dishes or keeping tempting foods out of sight—can help regulate intake without relying on willpower. The book encourages awareness of these subtle influences and offers practical strategies to develop healthier eating habits by becoming more mindful of the cues that affect our eating behavior.
