The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a weight loss regime first created by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an accompanying website. The Zone diet is not expressly a fat reduction diet, but some people believe that they actually lose body weight by following it.
The 'science' behind the Zone Diet is that if one were to gain control of the amount of two key hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which, in turn puts the body in a state of balance that is a lot more healthy than it normally is, which is known as the zone.
Sears alleges that if you get into this 'zone', your body is working at its best and, as a consequence, doesn't build up layers of fat.
The most interesting technique of the system is to maintain the precise ratio of carbs to proteins, and to ensure your diet has plenty of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils.

Ingredients And Procedures

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup brown sugar

1 cup corn syrup

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

6 ounces butter softened

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

2/3 cup crushed espresso beans

1 cup chopped pecans

Combine salt, brown sugar and corn syrup in mixer bowl with paddle attachment. Add flour, butter and vanilla extract, mix well. Add espresso beans and pecans. Place the batter in heaping tablespoons on non-stick baking sheet - 3 cookies at a time. Bake in preheated 350 oven 8 - 10 minutes. Watch carefully. Remove cookie sheet from the oven. Peel off, one at a time, from the sheet. Drape over 3 pieces of crumpled shaped parchment paper. Timing here is important. If cookies become too hard before draping, place in oven to soften. Cookies, if too soft, will tear, and if too hard, cookies will crack when removing from the cookie sheet.
