Title: The Top 100 Zone Foods: The Zone Food Science Ranking System by Barry Sears ISBN: 0-06-098894-0 Publisher: Regan Books Pub. Date: 24 December, 2001 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $16.00 |

Summary: Very helpful book for anybody wanting to eat healthy
Comment: While I generally follow the Zone diet, this book is very helpful for ALL readers who are looking to improve their nutrition. For me personally, the "Enter the Zone", "Week in the Zone", and "Omega Rx Zone" are equally helpful. But, for people just wanting to read about nutrition -- without necessarily commiting to a lifestyle change, this is a good one.
However, I checked this out from the library and found it tremendously helpful in figuring out a clear way of examining foods for how good/bad they are. Ultimately, I purchased it -- which is the finest compliment.

Summary: A waste of paper
Comment: This is a horrible book; the other Zone books are much more useful. The recipes are best avoided; the "Did you know?" section about each food is irritatingly trite; the information content of the book is low. The only interesting thing to mention is that the quantities of various foods required to make up a "Zone block" have altered considerably since Sears published "Enter the Zone" in 1995. The pattern seems to be that (1) the recommendations for fat are doubled to 3 grams (but the number of peanuts that is said to fulfill that recommendation remains at 6), and (2) the amounts of high-fiber vegetables have increased enormously, for example "artichoke, 1 medium" becomes "artichoke, 4 large", "broccoli, 1 cup" becomes "broccoli, 3 cups", "spinach, 4 cups" becomes "spinach, 20 cups". The curious statement that 1/2 nectarine is equivalent to 1 peach remains, however (a puzzle to botanists everywhere).

Summary: Zone Recipes for Dummies
Comment: Understanding "The Zone" is one thing. Developing menues, based on "The Zone", is another thing. Thank you, Dr. Sears, for providing so many alternatives for those of us who have neither the imagination nor the time to develop such recipes on our own.
The amount of research necessary to create such a variety of recipes is more than I could possibly do on my own, and greatly enhances the pleasure of being in the zone.
The book,"The Zone", provides a thorough explanation of the concept. This book, which, along with the recipes, contains brief explanations of the "zone" concept along with tables and charts, is an excellent complement to "The Zone", and I recommend it highly.
