Two meals versus six meals a day?

The usual advice to regulating blood glucose levels with diet has been to spread it out, to divide the meals down into smaller, more frequent meals, select higher glycemic index alternatives and perhaps remove or substitute some of the carbohydrates out. But a study in Prague suggests that a large breakfast and lunch with no dinner might be a better approach. So what are your thoughts on this?

    Lunch being eaten at around noon, then you'd go from noon until 7 or 8 am without eating? Doesn't that mess with your blood glucose? I know I'd get super crotchety because I'd be so hungry, and probably couldn't sleep very well, which would mess with my blood glucose (we just went through a heatwave and I slept briefly and very lightly 2 nights in a row and had a very very bad glucose reading plus I was feeling horrible, both from the heat and from the lack of sleep). I could see a solid breakfast and then a late dinner. I guess I'd need more info and specifics.
