The Zone Diet plan

The main goal of the Zone Diet plan is to control the protein-to-carbohydrate ratio every time you eat. Once you have controlled this ratio for about five to seven days, the Zone will become immediately and constantly accessible. The dieter can choose from three methods to put together a balanced Zone meal.

The Hand-Eye Method relies on your hand and a plate, with no math or measuring necessary. You visually divide your plate into three sections. One third of your plate, on the Zone Diet plan, is for lean protein and the remaining two thirds are for favourable carbohydrates such as fruit and vegetables. Meats should be about the size and thickness of your palm. Once you have filled your plate with the required foods, add a touch of beneficial fat such as avocado or olive oil.

The Zone Counts Method offers a more exact method for calculating carbohydrates. Here, you add up your carbohydrates based on the Zone Counts values. Women can eat 15 Counts per meal, men 20 Counts per meal, and 5 Counts for snacks for either gender. A Zone Counts Index is available online or from the numerous books published by Dr. Barry Sears.

The Zone Diet Meal Planner can also be used if you have Internet access. Zone-balanced meals can be automatically planned for your wants and needs.

Hundreds of quick and easy recipes can be found and substitutions are easy to make if you are not happy with the one you were assigned.
