The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a diet first detailed by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an accompanying website. The Zone diet isn’t particularly a fat reduction diet, but some people believe that they reduce a few pounds when following it. The 'science' claimed for the Zone Diet is that if one can control the levels of two key hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which, as a result puts one's body in a balanced state that is much more wholesome than usual, this is referred to as 'the zone'. Sears alleges that if you get into this 'zone', your metabolism is working at its most efficient and, as a result, does not need to build up stores of fat. The key method of the zone system is to control the ratio of carbs to proteins, and to ensure your diet has large amounts of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils. |
