Is 6 Small Meals a Day Making You Fat?
But isn't that what I'm supposed to do?
We've always been told we need to eat every couple hours to keep that metabolism burning, keep that furnace stoked! But what if I told you that advice is likely making you fat, or at the very least keeping you fat? 😱
#sorrynotsorry if I just blew up your whole eating paradigm, but it's for your own good!
Eating every couple hours, or 6 small meals a day, is completely working AGAINST the way your body was designed. Your body wasn't made for a constant intake of food energy (calories) all day long and when it's constantly being fed, you're more likely to be storing those calories as fat. I mean, just think logically; does it even make sense that eating all day long would be good for weight loss? EVEN IF the food is in small portions.
Just because you've heard advice over and over again DOESN'T mean it's good advice! Spoiler Alert: there's not one bit of scientific evidence showing that eating every couple of hours does ANYTHING to either speed up your metabolism, or burn more calories through the day. There is however a mountain of evidence that shows it could absolutely be detrimental to your metabolism, reduce insulin sensitivity, and cause you to store more fat.
In today's episode we'll discuss:
- what the science says about HOW you should eat
- what happens in your body when you eat and how to optimize it
- what it really takes to lose weight (aka lose fat)
- how to eat instead of 6 small meals and what it takes to do that
Need more help with some of these concepts and want to actually KNOW how to put them in place in your life? Then make sure you're on the mailing list for the next launch of the Weight Loss and Wellness Program!
