Small meals more often: healthy eating plan or misguided theory?

Have you ever considered changing your diet plans to 5 or 6 small meals and snacks per day instead of 3 traditional meals?  If you think it will help you achieve your healthy weight loss goals, you might want to read this article first to learn the details about this theory.

Eating smaller meals throughout the day while maintaining the same caloric intake has its benefits.  Research has shown that this type of eating allows more glucose to be used as fuel and requires less insulin secretion so that calories are sent to muscles instead of being stored as fat.  Additionally, it means the stomach doesn’t have to stretch as much, and less stretching creates an even flow of energy as opposed to separate large nutrient deposits.  Finally, less cholesterol synthesis and increased cholesterol removal lower LDL levels.

Eating more often can be considered a strategy for eating right, but not necessarily for achieving healthy weight loss.  The thermic effect of feeding, which keeps your metabolism running at a higher rate, is relatively small and often ruined by poor food choice on the part of the person who concentrates on meal size and time rather than good nutrition.
