For zone skeptics here are a few facts:

1) The editor and half the staff of the "Vegetarian Times" are now on
the zone diet.

2) Kung Food, San Diego's oldest vegetarian restaurant (21 years)has
now changed its name to the "Vegetarian Zone" and is serving many zone
meals.

3)Ron Schmid, author of "Native Nutrition", supports the zone
principles and has been on a mostly raw version of it for 20+ years.

4)According to a post from the zone list one of the two big
naturopathetic colleges in the NW is now using "Enter the Zone" by
Barry Sears in its curriculum.

PS. Factoid: People on a CR (calorie restrictive) diet can by zone
standards sometimes be eating too many calories, yet people on the zone
are not skinny as many CR's seem to be.
