Dieting 101

The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a diet system first invented by Barry Sears in a number of books and publications. The Zone diet isn’t expressly a fat reduction diet, although many zone diet followers claim that they reduce weight when following it.
The theory behind the Zone Diet is that if you were to gain control of the secretion of two important hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids which, in turn puts one's body in a state of balance that is far more healthful than other diets, known as the 'zone'.
Sears claims that when your body is in this 'zone' it is working at its best and, as a result, doesn't need to convert surplus energy to fat.
The most important method of the zone system is to control the ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to take increased amounts of Omega 3 and omega 6.
