About Nutrition for Adults
We recommend a paleo or caveman model as a basis....In plain language, base your diet on garden vegetables, especially greens, lean meats, nuts and seeds, little starch, and no sugar. That's about as simple as we can get.

Once you get the hang of it, the Zone is pretty simple to follow, so here are a few things to help.
- Balance your Protein, Carbohydrates and Fats at each meal
- Eat something or your first meal within one hour of waking
- Drink an 8oz glass of water at least 8x a day
- Always eat your fats
- Eat lean low-fat protein sources, including salmon 1-2x per week. If are going to eat beef, eat grass fed beef. Continue reading..
- Eat a 1-2 block snack about 30 minutes prior to sleep
- If you are hungry, eat
- If you fall off the wagon, forget about it! Dust yourself off and climb back on with the next meal or snack
About Nutrition for Kids & Teens
Sane nutrition for kids in 150 words thanks to our friends at CrossFit Kids and CrossFit Inc.
Our goal with kids isn't to get them on the zone, but to get them to think and make good choices about what they eat. Our goal is to teach them very basic concepts, sugar is bad, protein is good and you need to eat some in every meal. Nuts and seeds are good fats. Eat them, don't avoid them. Pasta, white bread, and white rice are not that good for you, stuff that's red, yellow, green and found in the fruit and vegetable aisle is good for you. Eat a lot of it.
Look at your plate, make a fist, eat that much meat every meal; turn your hand over and fill it with nuts and seeds, eat that much good fat, fill the rest of your plate with stuff you found in the fruit and vegetable aisle. Fill your plate this way at every meal, don't eat more.
