The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a weight loss regime initially suggested by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an accompanying website. The Zone diet isn’t exactly a weight loss diet, however many zone diet fans discover that they manage to lose body weight by following this system.
The theory behind the Zone Diet is that if one were to limit the levels of insulin and glucogen (two hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which, as a consequence puts your body in a state of balance which is more healthful than usual, which, not surprisingly, is known as 'the zone'.
Sears holds the theory that a body that is in 'the zone' is working at its best and, as a result, does not build up fat.
The most interesting technique of the system is to maintain the ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to take large amounts of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils.

Ingredients And Procedures

1 lb Pea pods

1 oz Butter

2 oz Cream

4 Lamb cutlets

1 Clove Garlic

Olive oil Salt and Pepper Handful of basil leaves

Steam the pea pods until just tender and pass through a sieve. You can liquidise them, but I found it allowed too much of the fibre into the puree. Reheat the puree gently with the butter and the cream. cut the garlic clove in two and rub over the surface of the meat. Brush the olive oil over the meat and season well with salt and pepper. Grill for a few minutes each side, depending on whether you like your lamb pink, or well done. Roughly chop the basil leaves with a sharp knife and stir into the puree off the heat, season with salt and pepper and serve with the meat. Source: Hugo Arnold, Evening Standard, London, UK
