Healthier is subjective. Diabetics are taught to eat multiple small meals a day to manage blood sugar levels better.

That of course assuming you're diabetic, otherwise you are totally capable of consuming food either way.

[sioux77]

Capable, but it doesn't matter since your blood sugar level will spike higher and for longer with a single large meal even in a non-diabetic individual.

[SketchySeaBeast]

And why, when compared to a constant elevated level from many small meals, is that a bad thing?

What diabetics are told to eat has generally been bullshit for good half a century. The whole low-fat craze and cholesterol horror stories I mean.
