The Zone Diet Vs Others
|
With The Zone, meals range from 1,000 to
1,600 calories per day and in fact, many people complain they have too much to
eat - not what you hear with other diets. The average American has a minimum of
100,000 stored calories in their body at any given time, which equates to 1,700
pancakes. You already have all the calories you need and now you need a way to
release them, which is what your hormonal carburetor does. The hormonal
carburetor helps to maintain appropriate blood sugar levels by releasing some of
those stored carbohydrates from your liver. The result is mental acuity and
focus on a consistent basis, and a decreased desire to eat.
