Because it's been preached for so long. Read again, it does not affect metabolism, but it has other benefits, all of which necessary for fitness, wellness, and bodybuilding. I eat six meals a day, even after I read that article, because of the other things I mentioned. I can't devour 1,000-calorie meals, so I break it up. All this is saying is, if it's not practical for you to eat every three hours, it's ok. Eat fewer meals but make sure to get all your macros and calories.

Oh I forgot one thing: that was one study, and it may be wrong. We've seen so many "facts" in the fitness industry get disproven after years of being held in high regard.

To everybody reading this article I never said eating small meals will speed up your metabolism and this was never in my original article to the editor. I am deeply sorry for this error in this article. I dont believe that eating small meals will speed up your metabolism....This was not from my words whatsoever!!!!! And I dont believe eating small meals will speed up your metabolism and that is broscience.....

All good Obi. I remember talking to you one day via e-mail and you said the exact opposite. Hence the confusion. Combating BroScience one day at a time!
