Dieting tips

The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a diet initially suggested by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an associated web site. The Zone diet isn’t exactly a weight reduction diet, however many people discover that they really manage to lose weight when following it.
The scientific theory behind the Zone Diet is that if you limit the levels of insulin and glucogen (two hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which puts one's body in a balanced state which is far more healthy than normal, known as the 'zone'.
Sears alleges that when your body is in this 'zone' it is much more efficient and, as a consequence, does not build up fat.
The most important process of the system is to monitor and control the exact ratio of carbs to proteins, and to make sure your diet has high levels of Omega 3 and omega 6.
