You may be referring to "The Zone" by Barry Sears. It is a controversial diet which receives an extremely high percentage of calories from protein. The theory behind it flies in the face of current understanding of metabolism and is considered by nutrition researchers to be highly flawed. In any case, due to its large quantities of protein, it would not be advisable for those having "off" times. -- Kathrynne Holden, MS, RD Editor-in-Chief, "Spotlight on Food--nutrition news for people 60-plus" Tel: 970-493-6532 Fax: 970-493-6538 http://www.fortnet.org/~fivstar You may wish to contact: Better Business Bureau of the Mountain States, < [log in to unmask]> for further information.
