The Zone Diet

According to some scientific research, the human body is at its healthiest when consuming only two types of food, these are lean protein and natural carbohydrates such as fruits and vegetables. The basis of the Zone Diet is that the human genes have not changed much since the human life form began over 100,000 years ago, when grains and processed carbohydrates did not exist. Therefore, the human body is at its healthiest and will achieve weight loss when consuming foods that were around since the beginning, such as meat, fruits, and vegetables.

A diet high in carbohydrates, as recommended by the US Government, induces the body to secrete higher amounts of insulin, which turns excess carbohydrates into fat that your body stores. The Zone believes that controlling your insulin level is the key to controlling your weight and successfully achieving weight loss. A weight loss program that controls insulin includes only low-density carbohydrates, dietary fat, and protein at a ratio of 40:30:30.

If you follow the Zone diet plan, you will lose weight, due to the very low calorie intake while enjoying foods high in protein such as roast beef and steaks. For more information, visit: http://www.zoneperfect.com.
