Diet information


The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a nutrition and weightloss system first suggested by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an associated website. The Zone diet isn’t particularly a fat reduction diet, but many zone diet fans claim that they manage to lose a few pounds when following it.
The science claimed for the Zone Diet is that if you gain control of the levels of the hormones 'insulin' and 'glucogen', then your body releases eicosanoids which puts one's body in a balanced state that is far more healthful than it normally is, which, not surprisingly, is known as 'the zone'.
Sears claims that when your body is in this 'zone' it is much more efficient and, as a result, does not convert energy to unsightly fat.
The main technique of the zone diet is to control the exact ratio of carbs to proteins, and to make sure your diet has increased 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"
Phillip C. McGraw
