The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a weight loss program first detailed by Barry Sears in a number of books and publications. The Zone diet is not specifically a weight loss diet, nevertheless some people discover that they actually manage to lose a few pounds by following this system. The main theory behind the Zone Diet is that if you limit the amount 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 balance that is far more wholesome than usual, known as the 'zone'. Sears believes that a body that is in 'the zone' is perfectly balanced and, as a consequence, does not build up layers of fat. The main method of the diet is to control the precise ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to take high levels of Omega 6 and 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"
