Zone Nutrition  Our Business Welcome to the website of Zone Nutrition. We specialise in the Zone diet; a balanced, healthy, low glycemic load eating plan developed for people with heart disease, and used by everyone including elite athletes, medical doctors and ordinary people, in order to improve health, maximise fat loss, and increase physical performance We at Zone Diet New Zealand are dedicated to ensuring your success on the Zone Diet. We provide education and support to make sure you succeed where you may have failed in the past.   The Zone Diet   The Zone Diet was designed by biochemist Dr Barry Sears, and is the result of over 20 years of research into the affect that food has on powerful hormones that affect fat storage, fat loss and health. It is also a diet clinically proven to reduce inflammation. Inflammation is now recognised as a contributor to many diseases including heart disease, Alzheimer’s and type 2 diabetes. The zone diet has been tested in clinical studies and has proven to be more effective than the conventional high carbohydrate, low fat diet and the high protein, high fat, Atkins style diet. In these studies the Zone resulted in: Up to twice the fat loss A greater improvement in cholesterol 44% less fatigue 16% more energy Improved management of diabetes – lower blood sugar and insulin levels   Our clients have also reported huge range health benefits particularly when the Zone Diet is combined with OmegaRx high concentrate fish oil, including: Weight loss without hunger or cravings Control of reactive hypoglycemia An increase in mental focus, no more foggy thinking Quicker recovery after exercise Decrease in pain and inflammation e.g. with arthritis, headaches Decrease or elimination of Premenstrual Syndrome and Menstrual Pain A decrease in symptoms of depression and stress Reduced and improved cholesterol Reduction in IBS, constipation, and other gut issues If you have any of the above issues and answer yes to some of the questions below, the Zone diet can help. Do you get hungry and grouchy when trying to lose weight? Have you had limited success on weight loss diets? Do you have a family history of diabetes or heart disease? Are you constantly hungry? Are you apple shaped - bigger in the abdomen? Do you suffer from mood swings and cravings caused by low blood sugar? Are you groggy upon waking? Do you exercise and still have excess body fat? Are you constantly tired?   We have found that many people, after switching from a conventional diet to the Zone Diet experience an improvement of many of these problems in just a few days.

Otago University carried out a year long study comparing three diets; Atkins, Zone and the Conventional high carbohydrate diet. After 12 months those following the Zone Diet had maintained a greater weight loss than those on the other two diets. The study also concluded that the Zone diet “may be the best overall approach to reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease and Type 2 diabetes”. Those on the Zone diet also seemed to enjoy it better.   It’s great to see local research again confirming the effectiveness of the Zone diet.   http://www.nzherald.co.nz/section/1/story.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=3605474   New Zealand Herald, 30th October 2005
