  Abstract\nIncreased meal frequency (MF) may be associated with improvements in blood-markers of health and body composition during weight loss; however this claim has not been validated.\n\nTo determine if either a two meal (2MF) or six meal frequency (6MF) regimen can improve body composition and blood-based markers of health while consuming a portion-controlled equi-hypocaloric diet. Eleven (N = 11) obese women (52 ± 7 years

  101.7 ± 22.6 kg

  39.1 ± 7.6 kg/m2) were randomized into treatment condition (2MF or 6MF) for two weeks

  completed a two-week washout

  and alternated treatment conditions. In pre/post fashion

  changes in body composition

  glucose

  insulin and lipid components were measured in response to a test meal. Body mass was successfully lost (p≤0.05) under both feeding regimens (2MF: -2.8 ± 1.5 vs. 6MF: -1.9 ± 1.5 kg). Altering MF did not impact glucose

  insulin

  total-cholesterol

  or LDL-C (p>0.05). On average

  fat-free mass (FFM) decreased by -3.3 ± 2.6% following the 2MF condition and on average increase by 1.2 ± 1.7% in FFM following the 6MF condition (p≤0.05). Fasting HDL-C percent increased during the 2MF condition; this was significantly greater than the 6MF condition (1.3 ± 12.2% vs. 0.12 ± 10.3%) (p≤0.05). Overall

  reductions in MF (2MF) were associated with improved HDL-C levels

  but clinical significance is not clear. Alternatively

  increased MF (6MF) did appear to favorably preserve FFM during weight loss. In conclusion

  caloric restriction was effective in reducing body mass and attenuating FFM changes in body composition

  however glucose

  insulin

  and lipid metabolism had no significant differences between MF.\n\nKeywords\nobesity; reduced-calorie diet; eating frequency; fat mass; lean body mass; insulin; glucose; lipid concentrations
