The South Beach Diet
The South Beach diet is a diet created by Dr. arthur agatston which encourages that dieters should be eating "good carbs" instead of "bad carbohydrates" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Agatston developed his weight loss system for people who have cardiac problems, as a result of his analysis of scientific studies on other weight loss systems. "good" foods include, lean beef, chicken breast, fish, provolone cheese, pistachio nuts, eggs and certain vegetables, like green beans, collard greens and sprouts. Lycopene rich foods (includes apricots, papaya and tomato sauce) The nutrient lypcopene is a natural chemical compound and part of the carotenid family of phytochemicals. Lycopene is accountable for the dark red hue of many fruit, vegetables and pulses. Usefully, unlike many other nutrients, it is not damaged if it is cooked, instead it is in fact increased in efficacy by cooking. . Its most interesting nutritional contribution is that it acts as an antioxidant and is thought to help lower the probabilty of contracting cancer. This useful phytochemical is the most efficacious carotenoid quencher of singlet oxygen, which is connected with aging of the skin. It's also believed to impede the development of atherosclerosis. |
