Western tradition typically is 3.

However recent studies have promoted eating more often, but smaller meals throughout the day. Roughly six smaller meals a day should promote a healthier lifestyle.

Ultimately the more important variable is amount (calories) a day as well as proper food types.

I try to eat six small meals a day. When I say small, I mean 300 calories or less per meal. Eating more frequently revs up your metabolism and keeps you satisfied because you are eating every 3 hours.
