Zone diet is the latest nutrition strategy that promises to improve  health, weight and athletic performance with correct ratio of carbohydrate to protein to fat intake. The  basis for Zone Diet  follows a formula of 40% carbs , 30% protein and 30% fats created by Barry Sears PhD. According to Dr Sears, this dietary regimen results in a greater delivery of oxygen to the working muscles, a condition known as "The Zone", where athletes perform better, mental focus is enhanced, and life is generally a better place

The Zone Diet Plan
 
The Zone Diet Plan is not a unique eating scheme. It should fit one's daily protein needs and personal taste. That is why there are several sources that offer custom-plans, based on personal features you fill in, such as height, weight, desired weight, age etc.

What Does a Zone Diet Meal Plan Look Like?

Suppose you have a protein need of 11 blocks every day. You know that you should eat 5 times a day; let's say you decided having 3 block-meals and 1 block-snacks. Your menu for 1 day can look like that:

1 Day in The Zone Protein Carb Fat
Breakfast 3 mini-blocks
21 grams
4 large egg-whites omelet + 1/2 cup cottage cheese, low fat		 3 mini-blocks

1 and 1/2 tbsp. peanut butter with the omelet

3 oz. chicken breast*		 3 mini-blocks
27 grams
3 and 1/2 cup of spinach + 1 apple		 3 mini-blocks

1 tsp. olive oil as dressing for chicken

1 Zone Bar

4.5 oz. cod fish, grilled		 3 mini-blocks
