Vita asked: The Zone diet is the one where you have to consume 40% carbs, 30% proteins, 30% fat. Tell me what you know about this diet, or any experiences. I’m just trying to find a diet that really works for me. Also, there is a Zone program where they deliver the food everyday to your house, so that would be very comfortable because I could diet without counting calories or confused about the cooking part.

Hi There,
Yes, I believe the zone diet works and I have been eating like that for the last 12 years. I am 37 years old and I weigh the same today as I did when I was in high school and I have had two children, who are now 18 and 15.
Years ago people thought I was wacko for eating that way, in addition to taking the borage oil, fish oil and flaxseed oil softgels or putting flaxseed oil in my shake.
Today, studies are coming out saying that eating in that way, keeping control of your insulin level and taking all of those oils are extremely beneficial. I do not have any health problems and I am never sick. But I have made eating like this a way of life, and I am very happy with the results all the way around!
Yes, the zone delivery food system also works. I have put a few of my bosses on these systems and they worked quite well for them because the food was good and it was convenient.
Hope this helps!
