South Beach Diet

South Beach Diet is the Next Atkins and More!

According to Dr. Arthur Agatston, author of The South Beach Diet, those simple carbs we’ve been living on are killing us. For good health, we’ve got to get our blood sugar under control and stop the incessant cravings.

To avoid blood sugar surges, Agatston created a modified carbohydrate plan, recommending plenty of high-fiber foods, lean proteins, and healthy fats, while cutting bread, rice, pastas, and fruits. Major differences from other diets include a lack of concern over portion size and a serious indifference to exercise. Feeling full while on a diet is a beautiful thing, but it seems odd that a cardiologist buries his exercise recommendations in a solitary sentence. This diet is revolutionizing weight loss.

South Beach Diet Online offers an interactive method to take full advantage of the benefits of this successful diet. Below is a letter from Dr. Agatston.:

Dear South Beach Dieter:

Welcome to the South Beach Diet Online. Since the diet became popular in Miami and the book The South Beach Diet became a best-seller, I’ve heard from countless people eager to tell me about their weight loss successes. I’m encouraged by how easy the program is to learn and put into practice. Now there is a Web site designed to make the diet even easier.

How? The Web site has the flexibility to provide personal feedback and guidance to help you reach your goals.

Low Carb Diet Part 01

It also has the ability to put you in touch with thousands of others following the plan. In the Message Boards, you’ll be able to ask questions and get answers from a large community of dieters with similar experiences, as well as from our expert nutritionists. You’ll get regular advice from me, too, in the Daily Dish newsletter and the Ask Dr. Agatston Q&As.

The site’s interactive tools are also designed to provide personal support. In the Weight Tracker, for instance, you can key in your weight, chart your progress, and get immediate feedback on how you’re doing on the diet. The site will tell you if you’re losing weight too fast or too slow, and what you can do about it. It’s like having your own personal trainer pointing out areas for improvement, telling you that you’re doing better than you think, and keeping you motivated.

In the Meal Plans section of the site, you’ll find Daily Menus for whatever phase of the diet you’re in, a Recipe Search to help you find delicious new dishes quickly and easily (including vegetarian-only recipes), and a Shopping List Generator that will print out lists of ingredients automatically.

By following the South Beach Diet Online, you’ll not only get help gaining control of your weight and your heart health, you’ll also be helping us make the diet better. Science is changing and improving all the time, and I see this diet as an evolution. As we learn new information about dieters’ needs and experiences, we’ll be able to continually improve the Web site, the plan, and our ability to help people.

Sincerely,
Arthur Agatston, M.D.

Atkins Diet

Proof that the Atkins Diet Works The Atkins diet is probably the most controversial weight loss plan. But regardless of the countless ridicule by medical and nutritional experts, latest studies show that it work and gets results. Two studies in one of medicine’s most distinguished journals show it really does help people lose weight faster without raising their cholesterol. Research in a recent issue of the New England Journal of Medicine, found that people on the high-protein, high-fat, low-carbohydrate Atkins diet lose twice as much weight over six months as those on the standard low-fat diet recommended by most major health organizations. Atkins Diet Books have sold 15 million copies since the first one was published in 1972. From the start, doctors branded the Atkins diet foolish and dangerous, warning that the large amounts of beef and fat would lead to sky-high cholesterol levels.
