The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a weight loss regime initially devised by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an associated website. The Zone diet is not distinctly a fat reduction diet, however many people discover that they actually lose a few pounds by following this system.
The main theory behind the Zone Diet is that if you were to limit the amount of insulin and glucogen (both hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids which, as a consequence puts the body in a balanced state which is far more wholesome than normal, this is referred to as 'the zone'.
Sears alleges that a body that is in 'the zone' is working at its most efficient and, because of this, doesn't need to convert surplus energy to fat.
The most interesting method of the zone diet is to control the precise ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to take large amounts of Omega 3 fish oils.
