The Timing of Food

a18.5.14.jpg
The same amount of food - and thus of calories - has a different impact on the body according to how and when you eat it.
In a trial, two meals a day - breakfast and lunch only - were considered, in opposition to the same food spread in six smaller meals around the clock. Two groups of 27 people were put on the two diets for 12 weeks. The results were remarkably different.
Those who ate two meals a day lost more weight than those who ate six, and had a significant reduction of blood sugar.
This seems to indicate a clear way forward to reduce body fat and even to treat type 2 diabetes with a diet that reduces the intake of food to two moments a day only, skipping dinner altogether.
The study comes from the Clinical Experimental Medicine in Prague.
