Insulin Resistance

[Turkish Juicer]

So forgive me if im not as knowledgable as you guys, but turkish juicer raised a good point. Is it bad to be eating frequent small meals? and also Turkish juicer i remember you had a thread on Insulin & green tea. With the information provided in this topic, how would green tea reflect in long term insulin resistance

It is not ''bad'' to be eating frequent small meals per se, it is certainly not the best strategy to yield lean gains and/or cut for many people, although frequent small meal theory is often thrown in our faces to be the most efficient strategy for boosting metabolism and hence increasing the rate of fat-burning process, which is nonetheless NOT a proven method.

Another downside of eating every 2-3 hour is the protein oxidation; that is, protein waste in simple terms. When you feed your body with protein every 2-3 hours, you are making it impossible for all the protein to be utilized as it should be, which leads to its oxidation, as opposed to giving your metabolism enough time to digest the protein meal before reloading your gut with another.

Yes, all studies point out to the fact that frequent consumption of green tea throughout the day would have a positive effect on insulin resistance, meaning that insulin sensitivity levels would be higher and resistance be lower.
