The South Beach Diet
The South Beach diet is a diet plan invented by Dr. arthur agatston, a cardiologist from miami, usa, which stresses that one should consume "good carbohydrates" instead of "bad carbohydrates" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Doctor agatston developed his weight loss regime for people who have cardiac problems, as a result of his detailed study of scientific research on other weight loss studies. Examples of good foods include, canadian bacon, turkey breast, prawns, fat free cheese, almonds, nonfat yoghurt and some vegatables, like split peas, celery and water chestnuts. Carotenoid foods (includes parsley, mangos and sweet potatoes) These colorful plants have high levels of carotenes thought by doctors to play a major part in cancer prevention, specifically those cancers involving the esophagus and stomach. Most also have a low calorie count, so should be included in every diet system. |
