Fewer meals may help prevent type 2 diabetes and obesity, suggests research universityofga
The review found that a specific type of restricted eating may reduce the chances of developing type 2 diabetes and improve your overall health. Known as time-restricted eating, this type of fasting means having regular but fewer meals, cutting out late-night snacks and not eating for 12 to 14 hours .
"What we've been taught for many decades is that we should eat three meals a day plus snacking in between," said Krzysztof Czaja, an associate professor of biomedical sciences in UGA's College of Veterinary Medicine."Unfortunately, this appears to be one of the causes of obesity."from going down during the day, and, with the amount of calories and sugars Americans consume on average, that can overload the body's insulin receptors.
Regular meal schedules, eating breakfast and decreasing meals and snacks can help guard against obesity and type 2 diabetes, according to the publication. And not all breakfasts aren't created equal. Aim for healthy fats and protein, like eggs, and avoid the sugar-filled breakfast cereals and pastries.
Obesity may lead to a variety of health conditions, including type 2 diabetes, heart disease and even some cancers.
