I can tell you with first hand experience maintaining proper glucose levels while eating more frequently is a massive challenge.
But there is also quite a bit of info that points towards 1 meal a day also being just fine. I haven't read up on it in a while, perhaps it's been countered and proven false.

Yeah, i understand. I hated it in my gym, when people say this and I get tired of explaining it over and over again.
I don't know about the 1 meal thing. I would say it depends entirely on what exactly that meal consists of. 1 meal of high fructose corn syrup would likely kill you. So its not as simple as "1 meal is ok". 1 meal of low/no carbs and being in a constant state of ketosis... sure.
