Why You Should East Six Meals A Day To Lose Weight
According to a new study, eating six meals a day instead of three could help you stabilize your blood sugar levels, adhere to your healthy eating regime and reduce hunger.
Researchers from the Agricultural University of Athens assessed 47 obese people with pre-diabetes or type two diabetes - they found that those who ate little and often had much better blood sugar control than those consumed three larger meals a day.
The participants in the study were asked to follow a special diet for six months. Everyone had the same calorie intake over the course of the day (designed to maintain their weight), but the frequency of eating varied.
Half ate three meals a day, half ate six, and the groups switched after three months.
The researchers found that the people who ate six times a day witnessed a decrease in their glycated haemoglobin and glucose levels, which is a sign of improved blood sugar control.
For the participants who had pre-diabetes and severely impaired glucose tolerance, eating little and often helped reduce how often they had high insulin levels and also delayed the time taken for blood glucose to peak after eating sugar.
Although the study was intended to measure diabetes and blood sugar, all the participants reported reduced hunger levels when following the six-meal plan.
This suggests that eating six smaller meals a day, rather than three large ones, could help you achieve your weight-loss goals as well as improving your blood sugar levels.
