Losing weight

The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a weight loss regime first suggested by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an associated web site. The Zone diet is not specifically a weight reduction diet, although many people discover that they actually manage to lose a few pounds by following it.
The theory behind the Zone Diet is that if one were to limit the levels of two important hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids which, in turn puts the body in a balanced state that is far more wholesome than normal, which followers of the diet, refer to as '"he zone".
Sears alleges that when in the 'zone', your body is working at its most efficient and, as a result, does not need to build up stores of fat.
The main method of the system is to maintain the exact ratio of carbs to proteins, and to ensure your diet has high levels of Omega 3 fish oils.
