Healthier eating habits seen with smaller, more frequent meals

Healthier eating habits seen with smaller, more frequent meals 

Adults who ate multiple small meals had a lower average body mass index and consumed fewer calories than those who had fewer but larger meals, a study in the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics says. Researchers also found those who ate smaller meals consumed foods with greater nutritional value, while those who had larger meals showed higher caloric intake at night and were more likely to consume alcohol with the evening meal.
