Dieting tips

The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a weight loss regime initially devised by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an associated website. The Zone diet is not exactly a fat reduction diet, but many zone diet followers discover that they manage to lose body weight by following the zone diet.
The 'science' claimed for the Zone Diet is that if you control the secretion of insulin and glucogen (both hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids which, in turn puts the body in a balanced state which is much more healthful than it normally is, which is known as the zone.
Sears holds the theory that a body that is in 'the zone' is working at its most efficient and, because of this, doesn't convert energy to unsightly fat.
The most interesting method of the zone system is to control the exact ratio of carbs to proteins, and to take high levels of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils.
