The Zone diet is not expressly a weight reduction diet, nevertheless many people believe that they reduce body weight by following this system. The science behind the Zone Diet is that if you can gain control of the levels of two important hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids which, as a consequence puts the body in a balanced state that is more wholesome than usual, which followers of the diet, refer to as '"he zone".
