the 180degree newsletter is very good this month. Quoting from the Andrew Kim article:
"But probably the most effective and dependable means to keep blood glucose levels in the functional range is to eat at least every 3 to 4 hours (if not more frequently) throughout the day. Not only will this ensure that blood glucose levels remain in the functional, and out of the hypoglycemic range for as much of the day as possible, but it will also keep the stress hormones – including cortisol – down by the same extent. Studies in animals and humans have shown that frequent nibbling versus 2 or 3 large meals results in greater weight loss, despite eating the same amount of food."
