"We also found that despite the common trend of eating smaller, more frequent meals, eating frequency had relatively no beneficial impact on appetite control. The larger meals led to reductions in appetite, and people felt full. We want to emphasize though that these three larger meals were restricted in calories and reflected appropriate portion sizes to be effective in weight loss."
Thanks for this. It does sound like the dairy and pork industry might have sponsored it, but the recommended dietary distribution of macronutrients certainly didn't allow for over consumption of those foods. And the food allotment sounded generous. Hope some of the men stuck to something similar after the study.
