Weight loss systemsThe Zone Diet The Zone diet is a nutrition system first detailed by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an associated web site. The Zone diet is not exactly a fat reduction diet, but many people discover that they really lose body weight when following it. The science claimed for the Zone Diet is that if you can limit the amount of insulin and glucogen (two hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which, in turn puts one's body in a balanced state that is much more healthy than other diets, this is referred to as 'the zone'. Sears alleges that when in the 'zone', your body is working at its best and, as a result, doesn't build up fat. The main technique of the diet is to control the exact ratio of carbs to proteins, and to ensure you get increased amounts of Omega 3 and omega 6. |
