Foods containing allyl sulfides
( includes garlic, onions and green onion)

The onion and garlic range of vegetables is rich in allyl sulphides, a chemical which experts believe could be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer.
Even though there is insufficient definitive proof present, allyl sulphides are also thought by many researchers to reduce symptoms with colds, arteriosclerosis and fatigue.

Foods containing allyl sulfides also have a low calorie count, so are ideal for including in your diet.



The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a diet primarily detailed by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an associated web site. The Zone diet is not distinctly a fat reduction diet, although many zone diet fans discover that they actually manage to lose body weight by following the zone diet.
The theory behind the Zone Diet is that if one can limit the levels of insulin and glucogen (both hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids which, in turn puts the body in a state of balance that is an awful lot more wholesome than normal, which followers of the diet, refer to as '"he zone".
Sears holds the theory that if you get into this 'zone', your body is perfectly balanced and, because of this, doesn't need to build up stores of fat.
The most important process of the zone diet is to control the exact ratio of carbs to proteins, and to make sure your diet has increased amounts 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"
Phillip C. McGraw
