The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a diet system initially devised by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an associated web site. The Zone diet isn’t specifically a weight loss diet, however many zone diet fans believe that they really manage to lose weight by following it.
The science claimed for the Zone Diet is that if you were to control the secretion of two key hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids which, as a result puts the body in a state of balance that is a lot more healthful than normal, which is known as the zone.
Sears believes that if you get into this 'zone', your body is working at its best and, because of this, does not build up fat.
The main process of the zone diet is to control the precise ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to make sure your diet has large amounts of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils.
