The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a diet initially suggested by Barry Sears in a series of books. The Zone diet isn’t expressly a weight loss diet, however some people claim that they actually seem to lose body weight when following it.
The science claimed for the Zone Diet is that if you were to gain control of the secretion of two key hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which, as a consequence puts your body in a state of equilibrium that is a lot more healthful than other diets, which followers of the diet, refer to as '"he zone".
Sears states that a body that is in 'the zone' is working at its most efficient and, as a result, does not need to build up stores of fat.
The key technique of the system is to maintain the precise ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to ensure you get increased amounts of Omega 3 fish oils.
