Why do we recommend the “Zone”?

 

         It is a very reasonable starting point to make decisions about Macronutrition.

 

         It treats food as though it were a drug.  It is a “Hormonally Correct Way to Approach Food.”

 

 It manages the balance of important hormones for Glucose control and lowers elevated Insulin levels. This is  critical for Type II diabetics.

 

I        It is a perfect program for patients with Coronary Artery Disease and the Metabolic Syndrome (Syndrome X).

 

It emphasizes the critical need for Omega 3 Fats (Fish Oil) to balance the good and bad Eicosanoids, important hormones which control many bodily functions. When these are out of balance you are at risk for many chronic diseases and accelerated aging.

 

It is somewhat calorie restricted which may slow the aging process.

 

It creates a hormonal environment for efficient fat burning which is critical for weight loss!!

 

It avoids the swings of appetite and mood associated with hypoglycemia.

 

It may be the diet that we are genetically designed to eat. Similar to the “Hunter-Gatherer Diet.” 40% Carbohydrate, 30% Fat and 30% Protein.

 

It is easy to teach and understand.

 

It is the best  long term approach to Macronutrition.
