Free Zone Diet: How to Do the Zone Diet
How to stay in the Zone There are Zone delivery programs on the market, but the diet can be followed using basic kitchen staples. The daily plan allows dieters to have their favorites – in moderation – as long as they re in the right 40-30-30 combination.
A simple way to remember? Fill one third of a moderately sized plate with low-fat protein and two-thirds with fruits and vegetables (Salad dressing and butter should not exceed the size of a thumb.)
While the plan doesn’t eliminate any food group, it does discourage eating anything with a high fat or carb content such as grains, starches and pastas. Fruits and veggies are good carbs, and monounsaturated fats (like olive oil, almonds and avocados) are ideal.
