The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a diet primarily created by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an associated website. The Zone diet is not expressly a fat reduction diet, nevertheless many 'zone dieters' claim that they actually seem to lose a few pounds by following this system.
The scientific theory behind the Zone Diet is that if one were to limit the levels of insulin and glucogen (both hormones), then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which, as a consequence puts the body in a state of equilibrium that is much more healthy than normal, which, not surprisingly, 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, does not need to build up stores of fat.
The key technique of the zone diet is to keep tight control over the exact ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to dose yourself with increased levels of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils.
