Effective nutrition is moderate in
protein, carbohydrate, and fat
. Forget about the high carbohydrate, low fat, and low protein diet. 70% carbohydrate, 20% protein, and 10% fat may work for your rabbit, but it won’t do anything for you except increase your risk of cancer, diabetes, and heart disease or leave you weak and sickly.
Balanced macronutrient and healthy nutrition looks more like
40% carbohydrate, 30 % protein, and 30% fat
.
Dr. Barry Sears’
Zone Diet
(http://www.drsears.com/) still offers the greatest precision, efficacy, and health benefit of any clearly defined protocol.
The Zone diet does an adequate job of jointly managing issues of blood glucose control, proper macronutrient proportion, and caloric restriction – the three pillars of sound nutrition whether your concern is athletic performance, disease prevention and longevity, or body composition.
