Why Is Barry Sears Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Barry Sears is an American biochemist and author best known for creating and promoting the Zone diet, a low-carbohydrate fad diet that is not supported by good medical evidence. Biography As stated in several of his books, the Zone diet was born of his desire to avoid an early death from a premature heart attack, a fate of which all other men in his family had been early victims. In more recent years, Sears has popularized the use of high-dose Omega-3 fatty acids and polyphenols to further reduce inflammation. He began studying lipids primarily because their difficulty to study made them an under-examined field of research.
