Losing weight

The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a diet initially detailed by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an associated website. The Zone diet isn’t distinctly a weight loss diet, but some people claim that they actually seem to lose body weight when following it.
The main theory of the Zone Diet is that if you gain control of the amount of insulin and glucogen (two hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which puts the body in a state of balance that is an awful lot more wholesome than normal, which is known as the zone.
Sears believes that when in the 'zone', your body is working at its most efficient and, as a consequence, doesn't build up fat.
The key method of the zone diet is to monitor and control the precise ratio of carbs to proteins, and to take large amounts of Omega 3 fish oils.
