The zone diet (I).What is the zone ?.

The zone diet is one of the nourishment suggestions that we find when we want to improve our diet.

The model was created by Barry Sears, in the United States, who believes in it more than a diet as a lifestyle,  so it  could be a way of feeding ourselves permanently.

At the begining, it was used with olimpic swimmers, and then it was  in fashion among some Hollywood stars, and it is currently a choice to drive our nourishment.

The main characteristic of the zone diet is that it organises diet due to the influence that food has on the metabolism, more than the number of calories.

The zone is got with the two hormones that control the concentration of glucose in blood: the insulin and the glucagon.

This state could  be reached as well with physical training. After a nice activity we have a fresh feeling, comfort, etc that is suitable for the zone. But we cannot keep on this state son long.
