Types of diet


The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a nutrition and weightloss system primarily detailed by Barry Sears in a series of books. The Zone diet isn’t expressly a fat reduction diet, however some people claim that they really seem to lose a few pounds by following the zone diet.
The science behind the Zone Diet is that if one can manage to control the secretion of insulin and glucogen (both hormones), then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which, in turn puts the body in a state of balance which is much, much more healthy than usual, which, not surprisingly, is known as 'the zone'.
Sears believes that if you get into this 'zone', your body is perfectly balanced and, as a consequence, does not build up layers of fat.
The main method of the zone diet is to maintain the precise ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to ensure you get plenty of Omega 3 fish oils.

"A good cook is the peculiar gift of the gods. He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate, from the palate to the finger's end.
"Walter Savage Landor"


"A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit."

"Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life"
Phillip C. McGraw
