The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a diet first created by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an accompanying website. The Zone diet isn’t distinctly a fat reduction diet, but many zone diet fans believe that they actually lose weight by following it.
The main theory of the Zone Diet is that if you were to limit the amount of insulin and glucogen (two hormones), then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which, as a consequence puts the body in a state of balance which is far more wholesome than it normally is, which followers of the diet, refer to as '"he zone".
Sears alleges that when your body is in this 'zone' it is perfectly balanced and, because of this, does not need to convert surplus energy to fat.
The main technique of the diet is to control the exact ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to ensure your diet has high levels of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils.
