Nutritionist Comment Supports NoS "Three Hearty Meals&q
Posted: Thu Mar 11, 2010 3:03 pm
Been lurking here for some time....LOVE the site, bought the book, and am following a somewhat modded NoS...
Anyhow, when I was reading an article on The Daily Mail site, I came across this quote for a nutritionist, and thought people here might find it interesting...
"Which is better for you - three hearty meals or six little ones? Diet books might advise you to 'eat little and often', but you're no more likely to lose weight this way.
Australian scientist Dr Michelle Palmer compared weight loss in people eating in both ways and found they lost the same amount. The only difference was the six-mini-meal group was more likely to put the weight back on.
Angela says: 'Eating little and often can control hunger, but there's a danger that by eating more often you eat more calories.'
Hugs to everyone
