The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a weight loss program first advocated by Barry Sears in a series of books. The Zone diet isn’t exactly a weight loss diet, but many zone diet followers claim that they really seem to lose a few pounds by following this system.
The supposed science behind the Zone Diet is that if you limit the secretion of two important hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids which puts the body in a balanced state that is an awful lot more healthy than it normally is, which followers of the diet, refer to as '"he zone".
Sears states that if you get into this 'zone', your body is working at its most efficient and, as a result, does not convert energy to unsightly fat.
The main process of the diet is to keep tight control over the exact ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to ensure you get increased amounts of Omega 3 fish oils.
