The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a diet initially suggested by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an associated website. The Zone diet is not specifically a fat reduction diet, however many 'zone dieters' believe that they really seem to lose a few pounds when following it. The main theory of the Zone Diet is that if you control the amount of insulin and glucogen (two hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids which puts the body in a state of balance which is a lot more healthful than normal, which is known as the zone. Sears states that if you get into this 'zone', your body is perfectly balanced and, as a result, doesn't convert energy to unsightly fat. The main technique of the zone system is to monitor and control the ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to ensure your diet has high levels 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
