The Zone Diet Review - Find out what the Perfect Meal is in The Zone

The Zone Diet is based on hormonally balanced meals that contain 40% low glycemic index carbohydrates, 30% lean protein and 30% monounsaturated fats. According to Barry Sears, the founder of this diet, this combination will control insulin and hormone levels and cause stored fat to be burned as well as give you optimal energy and health.

The diet requires protein to be eaten at every meal along with fiber rich vegetables and fats. The fiber rich vegetables should be twice the size of the protein portion with the exception of “Unfavorable carbohydrates" such as brown rice, pasta, bananas, bagels which can be eaten in smaller quantities. It also highly recommends fish oil to be taken daily.

Depending on your body size, this diet restricts the amount of protein, carbs and fats. Each “unit” or “block” consists of a certain specific amount of each food type and the dieter must calculate the units per food and combine them in the optimal quantities.
