I can't thank you enough for your creation of the Zone Diet and the anti-inflammation lifestyle. It has been 4 1/2 years since I've embraced the Zone and the lifestyle (diet, exercise, high-dose omega-3 fish oil and meditation). I lost 80 pounds and have not been sick once during that time. About five years ago I went in for a physical, and my doctor recommended that I start taking blood pressure medicine and cholesterol medication. He said he would give me one year to try a diet and exercise program, and if I couldn't turn things around, I would have to start the medications. One year later my blood pressure and cholesterol were within a normal or acceptable level.
What I didn't tell the doctor was that I've been obese and have had high blood pressure since my late teens. (I'm now 57.) This genetic propensity has run in my family for generations, and my father and grandfather did not live past the age of 55 years old. I've never felt better!
Thanks again,
Dave
