The South Beach Diet
The South Beach diet is a diet plan created by Miami, florida-area cardiologist arthur agatston which stresses that dieters should be eating "good carbohydrates" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats"
Agatston invented the south beach diet as an aid to patients with heart conditions, as a consequence of his detailed study of scientific research completed on other dietary studies.
Examples of good foods include, lean cuts of beef, chicken breast, shrimp, parmesan cheese, peanut butter, nonfat milk and some vegatables, like green beans, cucumbers and turnips.


Foods containing allyl sulfides
( includes pickled shallots, leeks and spring onions)

The onion family of foods is rich in allyl sulfides, a chemical which experts believe may be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer.
Although there is little scientific evidence obtainable, allyl sulphides are also thought by many experts to aid in blood circulation, arteriosclerosis and physical exhaustion.

Foods containing allyl sulfides are also good for weight loss, so should be included in every weight loss regime.

"A good cook is the peculiar gift of the gods. He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate, from the palate to the finger's end.
"Walter Savage Landor"


"A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit."

"Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life"
Phillip C. McGraw
