How many Meals a Day? - Planning, Quantity, Everything

Introduction of Meals a Day

In most cases, many beginners often get confused with meal frequency when they are on their initial days of acquiring healthy lifestyle or eating pattern. So, today through this article I'll be clearing your every possible doubts or confusion regarding the concerned matter i.e. meal frequency.

So, without much delay let's get started!!

How many meals a day?

Now, most of the people believe that 6-7 meals a day is ideal for a healthy lifestyle but this is absolutely not applicable to everyone. In fact, 6-7 meals a day concept is applicable and appropriate to some of the special cases and that special cases would be discussed further in this article.
So, don't skip anything if you really want to know the actual concept of meal frequency and ideal healthy eating pattern.

See, in most of the research studies and meta-analysis, it is clearly mentioned that the quality and the quantity of food is what matters the most. For example, if you are an individual whose aim is to lose weight and suppose you are only required to consume 2000 calories/day.

No matter if you divide your total calorie intake into 6 meals or 2-3 meals, you will achieve the same exact results as long as you aren't exceeding your required calories intake.

Likewise, if you are aiming to lose weight and don't have portion control then you cannot achieve your weight loss goal no matter what. 

Unfortunately, many peoples are misguided by many gym trainers who aren't certified trainers or nutritionists.

How many meals a day should you eat?

How frequently you should have meal is solely depends upon your individual ease of convenience.
It is not necessary to consume 6-7 meals a day for most of the general public.

If your lifestyle permits only 2-3 meals a day then go for it. Do not make your eating pattern too much complicated. Always remember, not only food or eating pattern should be healthy but also it should be convenient to your lifestyle and most importantly, you must enjoy your food while having it.

In the Journal of nutrition review 2015, 3 researchers have done clear meta-analysis in which they found that increasing meal frequency or eating 6-7 times a day doesn't show any significant change to our body composition, and hence it is not applicable to every as long as you meet your daily intake. So, consume food with your ease of convenience.

But however, there are some special cases where eating 6-7 meals a day is advisable.

What are those special cases?

There are two major special cases:

1. Advanced athletes
2. Diabetes patients

Well, as of now we are absolutely clear that eating 6-7 meals a day isn't applicable to everyone. However, there are some special categories of people where they need to divide their meals into 6-7 times a day like advanced athletes who are indulge in phenomenal physical activities, peoples like this are required to consume an extremely higher amount of food and calories.

These athletes are indulge in extremely high-intensity training sessions and the amount of weight lifted by them is  phenomenal. Thus, as a result they are required to consume higher amount of calories in order to meet their fitness goals which will further enhance their performance.

For that reason, they can't consume huge amounts of calories in a single meal or two and actually it is not possible practically. Please keep in mind that these athletes consume too much calories which is not advisable for most of the 95% public in general as these normal people aren't indulge any kind of too much physical activity. Most of the general public do exercise in order to be healthy, fit and most importantly to be disease free. They don't have any specific sports goal and moreover they doesn't aim to increase performance phenomenally. 

So, from now onwards if you happen to come across someone who promotes 6-7 meals a day then please refer them to this particular article which is loaded with real knowledge and hence no bullshit.

Thus, matter of fact is that you are required to get your focus more on the quality and quantity of the food that you are going to have instead of wasting too much extra time and energy on dividing your meals into multiple times a day.

Summary:- Consume your food as per your ease of convenience with the focus on the quality and quantity of your food. Eat what your lifestyle permits but at the same do not make your food choices wrong.


Now, the second special case people are those who are diabetic. They are required to consume meals most often and thus they can follow 6-7 meals a day concept. Most doctors suggest these people to consume their food into multiple times by dividing their food into smaller portions.

Why diabetes patients are required to eat most often?

Well, they are required to eat their meals multiple times a day to balance their blood sugar level. If they don't do so, they might happen to see some serious problems happening to their body. If their blood sugar level spikes too much at a very short period of time then they might face some extremely serious problems. Thus, these people can follow 6-7 meals a day without much problem.

So, if you don't fall under above mentioned two special cases then please consume your food as per your ease of convenience. Always keep in mind that the quality and quantity of the food is what matters the most.

Let's summarize quickly what we learned today?

1. We have learned about the real concept of meal frequency.
2. We have solved the question i.e. "How many meals a day"?
3. We have learned about the "why" behind the famous 6-7 meals a day concept.
4. We have learned about why athletes and diabetic are advised to consume their meals most often.

What are you capable of, after reading this article?

Well you are capable of many things and they are as follows:

When weight loss is a concern? Weight Loss Secrets

When weight loss is a concern?

Well, that's the most obvious question among the people being obese or overweight. Being concerned about weight loss or start realizing the urgency for weight loss is something that differs from individual to individuals as it is determined by various factors. 

As weight loss is extremely required when you are excessively overweight. That is the alarming clock for you to be concerned about weight loss and thus make yourself indulge in all the possible weight loss activities. 

Symptoms of being overweight 

When you start getting difficulties while performing day to day small activities like facing breathing difficulty while using the staircase or walking. Like, some people with excessive body fat and weight aren't able to walk properly for even 1km. 

So, if you are facing all those difficulties then it is nothing but a great welcome for various chronic health problems like type 2 diabetes, increased LDL Cholesterol levels, arthritis, and many more. 

People are often insisted or guided by many health care professionals and most of the health care professionals use the term "lifestyle change" extremely frequently. 

What is the correct approach for weight loss? 

Like, as I said that the term "lifestyle change" is used most frequently by many health care professionals but in my opinion, the term "lifestyle change" wouldn't be appropriate as it directly means to say that his whole life was a "joke" and for many beginners who are getting into weight loss journey will seem to be more impractical and thus it might demotivate them to be consistent instead we should be using the term "little healthy lifestyle modifications in your existing lifestyle pattern". 

Now when we use this positive term, physiologically it becomes more practical things to be implemented and many people can be consistent towards their goals as now they aren't asked to change their whole lifestyle pattern instead they are just asked to do little healthy modification in their existing lifestyle pattern. 

What are the beginning lifestyle modifications you should do? 

If you are just beginning your weight loss journey then first of all don't panic or too obsessed about being overweight. It is a new journey that actually should be more exciting and fun. You'll be getting more information about your body like your body's reaction to certain food or nutrients. 

Just analyze your lifestyle pattern and find out what are things which will hamper your weight loss journey and once you sorted out all those just start avoiding those activities that you were indulging in. 

Like, if you were having four donuts a day then start having two donuts a day and gradually decrease the donuts consumption and every single unhealthy habit you were indulging in. 

Just, don't be panic instead be more practical as a weight loss journey may take a year or two. So, you can't make yourself extremely restrictive unless you are a competitive athlete. 

So, make sure you enjoy the whole weight process so that you can be a great inspiration to many peoples. 

I want my viewers to be the history creators not just the history learners!! 

Can weight loss cause back pain?

Absolutely not! Weight loss doesn't cause you back pain instead it will make your joints relief from that extra body weight. 

However, it may cause you back pain only if exercises are performed in a wrong manner i.e. "inappropriate form" in case you are indulging in a weight training form of exercise. 

If you are doing weight training then make sure you are having correct information about exercises and most importantly it's an appropriate way of performing or else hire a certified fitness coach for you. 

A certified fitness coach will guide you with all the possible precautions and measures that are to be taken to meet your fitness goals. 

Are weight loss pills dangerous?

First of all, let me clarify that "there is no such magic weight loss pills". Weight loss is done with consistent discipline through creating a "caloric deficit". 

Unfortunately, people often get confused with dietary supplements protein shake. 

To know about Protein Shake, click in MAGIC

Most of the weight loss or fat burners contain black coffee and green tea extract and they sell you that in more price which is a waste of money. 

Instead of looking for any weight loss pills, you can add green tea to any of your snacks and you can also add black coffee before the workout and trust me adding these two in a combination of good exercise, caloric deficit and proper sleep will speed up your results. 

To know about Coffee, click in MAGIC

I would not suggest you to make any purchase for any weight pills as it might get you some sort of harm instead of benefitting you. 

In many studies, weight loss pills don't prove to be the most appropriate method of losing weight. 

If you want to know more weight loss pills then do allow us to know in the comment section below. 

How weight loss changes your face? 

People are often obsessed with their face fat and confuse themselves with the reality of spot reduction.  Weight loss changes your face through deducting your face fat and thus it gives your face a more attractive look. 

Usually, when people adopt some quality healthy eating habits their overall structure improves including face as well and thus it makes them more attractive. 

Is weight loss a symptom of diabetes? 

Yes! 

Weight loss can be the symptom of type 1 diabetes. In type 1 diabetes our body's immune system doesn't work well. 

In type 1 diabetes, our immune system treats our own body cells as foreign cells and it damages our own body's cells. Like, it starts destroying our fat cells, preserved muscles, bones, and many more so this is the way most of the patient with type 1 diabetes lack strength and suffers from weakness. 

Basically, in layman language, we can also say that in type 1 diabetes "body starts destroying its own cells". Thus, they experience unwanted or unexplained weight loss as well. 

So, if you are also experiencing such then make sure you consult your doctor and seek urgent medical advice before it gets too late.

Coffee: Expectations vs. Reality

How does caffeine helpful for the human body?

Coffee is a hot beverage but nowadays cold coffee are also preferred by many peoples. Cold coffee is a new concept which is liked by many across the globe.

I personally prefer hot coffee as my pre-workout. As it provides me some sort of caffeine that helps me to remain focused while exercising, primarily while heavy weight lifting sessions.

It's an awesome drink that you can have but under moderation. Caffeine has wonderful impacts as well as drawbacks when consumed in wrong manner and overconsumption which isn't required.

Coffee also helps in improving teeth health as well when consumed under moderation.

Let's explore those key factors of coffee related to health and fitness!!

Clinical trials on coffee consumption

In the clinical trial review of 2017, it was found that drinking coffee is generally safe within usual levels of intake(usual level are generally 1 cup of coffee a day).

Moreover it is likely to improve health perspectives but it also causes harm when over consumed at doses of 3-4 cups or even more cups of coffee on a regular basis. 

However, there are some exceptions which include the possibility of increased risk in women who have a bone fracture.

Coffee consumption queries related to digestion

A review which was done in 1999 found that coffee consumption does not cause digestive problems but it may promote gastrointestinal reflux when over consumed.

Two reviews of clinical studies on individuals who were recovering from abdominal, colorectal, and gynecological surgery showed that consuming coffee was absolutely safe and effective for enhancing postoperative gastrointestinal function.

Mortality rate linked to coffee consumption

The National Institutes of Health–AARP Diet and Health Study which was done in 2012 scrutinizes the connection between coffee consumption and mortality. They found that drinking coffee was linked with lower death risk. Those who added coffee in their lifestyle lived more than to those who didn't.

Coffee consumption queries related to Cardiovascular disease

Coffee consumption under moderation isn't a risk factor for cardiac disease. A meta-analysis of 2012 summarized that people who consumed coffee under moderation had less probability of heart failure. 

A 2016 meta-analysis summarized that consumption of coffee was linked with a reduced probability of death in myocardial infarction patients. Three or even more cups of coffee per day does not affect the risk of hypertension when compared to little or no coffee consumption.

However, drinking more than one cup of coffee a day (generally, if you over consumed it like 3-4 cups or even more) might get you slightly increased risk factor.

So, don't over-consume anything not only coffee but everything because overconsumption of anything no matter how good it is but it might get you in serious trouble when consumed in the wrong manner which isn't required.

OVER CONSUMPTION ACTS AS A SILENT, YET A DANGEROUS ENEMY

Coffee consumption related to Mental health queries

Coffee consumption can actually help you in improving mental focus when consumed under moderation but if it's over-consumed then it get you sleeping disorders as well.

Like I said, I personally prefer a cup of black coffee before my workout as a pre-workout drink and most of the pre-workout supplements contain the required dosage of caffeine in it.

So, caffeine consumption under moderation isn't a bad deal!!

What is the current dosage of caffeine per day?

This is a bit controversial as many studies suggest slightly different numbers but commonly 300mg caffeine per day is considered to be the safest.

NHS(National Health Service), UK currently its guidelines recommend coffee consumption not more than around four cups a day. In case you are a pregnant woman then you aren't advisable to consume caffeine more than 200mg a day.

Side effects of over caffeine consumption

When overconsumption of caffeine happened, typically more than 300 mg caffeine a day then it might cause and worsen anxiety.

For some people, discontinuing or reducing caffeine consumption might be a great thanks!!

As it can significantly reduce anxiety(only to those who are addicted to caffeine consumption).

Caffeine-induced anxiety disorder(Caffeine-induced anxiety disorder is a subspecies of the DSM-5 diagnosis of substance/medication-induced anxiety disorder). 

DSM-5 disorders include anxiety separation disorder, selective mutism, specific phobia like social anxiety disorder that is most commonly known as social phobia, and they also suffer from panic disorder as well.

Over Consumption of caffeine over a long period of time is associated with anxiety. The caffeine effects and the anxiety symptoms both increase activity within the sympathetic nervous system (The sympathetic nervous system or SNS is among one of the two main divisions of the autonomic nervous system).

The autonomic nervous system regulates the body's unconscious actions.

Populations that may be most influenced by caffeine consumption are primarily adults and those who are already suffering from anxiety disorders.

Coffee consumption queries related to Type II diabetes

Systematic review and meta-analysis of 28 prospective observational studies in which over one million participants were representative, there it summarized that every additional cup of caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee consumed in a day was associated with 9% and 6% lower risk of type 2 diabetes respectively.

Coffee consumption queries related to Cancer

Coffee consumption on cancer risk generally indicates to be safe and doesn't have any effect. A review conducted in 2011 founds that regular consumption of coffee up to 6 cups per day lowers the risk of several cancer types.

A study published in 2017 concludes that drinking two cups of coffee a day may reduce the risk of several cancer types that includes breast cancer, colorectal cancer, liver cancer, head, and neck cancers respectively.

Please keep in mind that all the above-mentioned recommendations aren't substitute for any professional health care or medical advice. Seek, medical advice from your doctor before implementing anything!!

It is just for knowledge purpose only and doesn't substitute your doctor advice as every individuals aren't the same so everything differs according to different individuals requirements. The doctor or any other health care professional who examines you physically can get your best advice.

How you will achieve massive growth as a certified nutritionist?

Certified nutrition consultant salary

Earning money and respect solely depends upon individuals discipline and consistency towards their work. Someone who worship their work and do it with moral ethics with utmost quality will gain more money and respect.

There is no limit to earning. Only the sky is the limit. So, you make exponential growth in terms of finance and everything you'd like. This will only happen if you love your work and have that required discipline towards it.

Not only in the fitness industry but everywhere, there are two different categories of people. One who always suffer financially and another who never suffer financially when compared to both categories.

Reason for everlasting financial crisis of few trainers and nutritionist

Like if you can see, you'll observe that different individuals working in the same sector but only some of them get paid as they wish. This happens because they have taken their work extremely seriously and have never compromised with quality in their work pattern. Thus, they enjoy their life in every aspect.

The one who takes his/her work seriously and serves their client with utmost care of quality will be respected in everyone eyes. They also earn the goodwill of their clients and then their goodwill acts as their great asset.

Certified Personal Trainer (CPT) - Meaning, Salary, Job, Scope

What is a Certified Personal Trainer (CPT)?

Certified personal trainer (CPT) simply means that an individual who is legally certified from any legal fitness institution or academy from any country across the globe. 

This is the most basic certification that is needed to acquire by everyone who is beginning their fitness career. Further, there are a lot of advanced fitness certifications that are to be done once you acquire CPT to be the advanced fitness coach.

How certified personal trainers are different?

There are plenty of trainers across the globe but not certified personal trainer. A certified personal trainer is the one who knows the fundamental of our human body. Thus, they plan an effective and injury-free workout plan for their clients.

There are plenty of trainers who misguide their clients due to lack of correct knowledge which is absolutely unethical.

As every individual isn't the same, so it becomes difficult to customize exercise plans, different suitable stretches to different individuals in case you aren't certified yet.

Nowadays, many of the clients look for a certified fitness coach who knows every aspect of fitness as many people want to train themselves in a safe environment with correct guidance.

NEVER DO EXACTLY WHAT MANY DO

Certified Personal Trainer importance

Certified personal trainer is extremely important for the healthy and sound growth of this beautiful fitness industry. If you visit any of the big gyms, hotels, or health clubs, they won't hire you as their personal trainer if you aren't certified.

So, it becomes difficult to work with these gym chains which are highly reputed for someone who isn't a certified personal trainer. As many of you probably be knowing that there are mainly three body types that are ectomorph, mesomorph, and endomorph. 

Three-body types 

are explained further below;

Ectomorph: Ectomorphs are characterized by a “thin frame”. They usually face difficulties in gaining both fat and muscle mass. Peoples who belong to this category are usually skinny, lean, and have a high metabolic rate. 

Mesomorph: People with a mesomorph body type are more likely to have a medium frame. They develop muscles easily and have more muscle than fat on their body. Mesomorphs are typically strong and solid. They don't even get overweight or underweight. This body type is extremely perfect for bodybuilding.

Endomorph: People with an endomorph body type are more likely to be fat and obese. They develop fat easily and thus they are the one who suffers from obesity. They have slow metabolic rate. This body type isn't ideal or most suitable for bodybuilding.

Thus, it becomes extremely crucial to understand these body types in a more efficient manner to ensure that clients are served well with service which is of top-notch quality.

Non certified trainers cannot fulfill all those crucial criteria as they don't possess the required knowledge. Thus, clients will look for a coach who is highly knowledgeable and possess those extraordinary skills.

A certified trainer possesses extraordinary communication skills. So, they earn respect and great income as well. They don't lose their potential clients easily as compared t non-certified personal trainers.

Yes, fitness is among the highest paying jobs or work but only if you possess that required knowledge and skills. 

The amount of money or revenue generated solely depends upon that particular individual who is undertaking the work.

Like if you can see, you'll observe that different individuals working in the same sector but only some of them get paid as they wish. This happens because they have taken their work seriously and have never compromised with quality in their work. Thus, they have also earned the goodwill. 

GOODWILL IS AN GREAT ASSET

          

Trainers should keep themself updated

In any sector not only in the fitness industry, only a few are financially sound because only few peoples always work on their existing knowledge and skills.
