If you eat more frequently the assumption high frequency advocates make is that hunger is suppressed before it gets too bad you overeat and blow your diet. Most of the research supports this showing greater appetite control being achievable using higher frequencies than lower frequencies, specifically when comparing 3 vs 1 meal a day. While this lends support to the idea that higher frequencies trump lower meal frequencies, most would consider three meals daily to be actually quite a low frequency.

An important point to make is that in uncontrolled studies where subjects could eat as they wish lower meal frequencies were associated with greater food intake lending support to the theory that a higher meal frequency controls appetite better. However, it should be noted that it is the fact people eat less that was the key driver to better success not a higher meal frequency having any special effect. What can be said though is that, in general, higher meal frequencies are associated with better appetite control.
