Diet types The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a nutrition and weightloss system primarily invented by Barry Sears in a number of books. The Zone diet is not particularly a weight loss diet, although many zone diet fans find that they actually lose a few pounds by following it. The 'science' behind the Zone Diet is that if you manage to gain control of the amount of two important hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids which, as a consequence puts the body in a state of equilibrium that is an awful lot more wholesome than it normally is, which, not surprisingly, is known as 'the zone'. Sears alleges that if you get into this 'zone', your body is working at its best and, as a result, doesn't need to build up stores of fat. The most important procedure of the zone system is to monitor and control the ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to dose yourself with plenty of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils. The Atkins’ Diet First invented by doctor atkins in the 1960s, the atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last decade. Popular with many famous celebrities, it supposedly allows weight loss but still allows you to eat many foods that are not normally available to dieters, like pork and eggs. With the atkins diet you eat protein and fat, avoiding carbohydrates almost completely. It is often referred to as a low carbohydrate, high protein, nutrition system. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including cereals and pasta made from white flour. Unlike other diets, with the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and, as a consequence, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a result, olive oil.

"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
