31 - [Thermic Effect of Food] Frequent Small Meals For A Fast Metabolism?

The age old claim of eating many small meals throughout the day for a faster metabolism is a MYTH. This week you'll learn all about the Thermic Effect of Food, how to leverage it, and what to base your daily meal frequency and schedule on.

A consistent eating schedule doesn't just improve adherence (AKA better results!). It also effects your hormones, digestion, and even your metabolism (we mention a study that showed a 27% difference between irregular vs consistent meal patterns).

So, does eating frequent small meals 'fire the metabolism'? Not really.

However you WILL benefit from more structure and consistency in your daily nutrition ;)
