I suggest you change in the meals, as this doesn't sound correct to me.
You could also use inbetween instead of before meals - but that is your choice.
Also, you forgot to add the 3rd person (singular) s to the verb disturb. This is an important inflection.
He disturbs
John disturbs
It disturbs
This/that disturbs

Re: nature
I would suggest this;
"They then eat less at mealtimes."
