Dieting 101

The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a diet initially suggested by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an associated web site. The Zone diet is not distinctly a weight loss diet, although many followers believe that they actually seem to lose body weight by following it.
The supposed science behind the Zone Diet is that if you control the secretion of insulin and glucogen (both hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids which, as a consequence puts your body in a balanced state which is more healthy than usual, which is known as the zone.
Sears states that when in the 'zone', your body is working at its best and, because of this, does not build up fat.
The key procedure of the zone diet is to maintain the exact ratio of carbs to proteins, and to take high levels of Omega 3 and omega 6.

Ingredients And Procedures

2 c Warm water

1 tb Sugar

1 tb Active dry yeast

1 tb Salt

5 1/2 c To 6 1/2 cups all purpose

Flour 2 tb Olive oil

ds More olive oil for crust

About 2 hours before needed:

Dissolve in 2 cups warm water in this order: 1 tb each of sugar, dry yeast and salt. Blend in with a large spoon 5 1/2 to 6 1/2 cups of flour. You can also add two tablespoons of olive oil for flavor.

Turn out onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and springy. Clean and grease your large bowl, place the dough in it, cover and let rise until doubled in bulk (1 to 2 hours).

Preheat oven to 450.

Punch down dough, divide into 3 - 4 pieces.

Roll out each piece on a floured surface, with a floured rolling pin into circles that fit into 12 inch pizza pans. (To roll, work from the center to the outside like pie dough. Let the dough rest several times to relax it and make it more cooperative. Turn it over from time to time and roll the reverse side.

Brush on a bit of olive oil; spread pizza or spaghetti sauce lightly over the surface and add own toppings. Sprinkle the top with grated cheese.

Bake for 15 mins.
