Episode 2743: Christian Finn challenges the common belief that eating six small meals a day aids fat loss. Through a meta-analysis, Finn reveals that meal frequency has little to no impact on weight loss or muscle retention. Ultimately, personal preference and dietary adherence matter more than how often you eat, with no "one size fits all" solution for improving body composition. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://muscleevo.net/six-small-meals-a-day/ Quotes to ponder: "The small difference in magnitude of effect between frequencies suggests that any potential benefits, if they exist at all, have limited practical significance." "Adherence is of primary concern with respect to nutritional prescription, the number of daily meals consumed should come down to personal choice if one’s goal is to improve body composition." "There is no 'one size fits all' prescription that will work equally well for all people, all of the time." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
