The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a diet first created by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an accompanying website. The Zone diet is not exactly a fat reduction diet, nevertheless some people find that they reduce a few pounds when following it. The theory behind the Zone Diet is that if you manage to control the levels of two important hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which, in turn puts the body in a state of equilibrium which is more healthy than usual, which followers of the diet, refer to as '"he zone". Sears holds the theory that a body that is in 'the zone' is working at its best and, as a result, does not build up fat. The key process of the zone system is to maintain the ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to take large amounts of Omega 3 and omega 6. |
