The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a diet system primarily created by Barry Sears in a number of books and publications. The Zone diet is not particularly a fat reduction diet, however many followers discover that they really seem to lose a few pounds by following it.
The main scientific theory behind the Zone Diet is that if one were to control the amount of two important hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which, as a consequence puts the body in a state of equilibrium which is more wholesome than it normally is, which followers of the diet, refer to as '"he zone".
Sears holds the theory that if you get into this 'zone', your metabolism is perfectly balanced and, because of this, doesn't need to build up stores of fat.
The most valuable process of the diet is to keep tight control over the ratio of carbs to proteins, and to ensure you get increased amounts of Omega 3 fish oils.
