The South Beach Diet
The South Beach diet is a diet system invented by Dr. arthur agatston which stresses that dieters should be eating "good carbs" instead of "bad carbohydrates" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Dr. agatston developed his weight loss system for people who have heart disease, as a consequence of his analysis of scientific data completed on other weight loss systems. Approved foods include, lean cuts of beef, chicken breast, seafood, feta cheese, pecan halves, lowfat yoghurt and some vegatables, such as lentils, broccoli and snow peas. Super foods containing lycopene (includes apricot, red bell peppers and spiny bitter gourd) Lycopene is a non-synthetic chemical compound and part of the carotenid family. Lycopene is the reason for the red colour of a good number of fruit and vegetables. Fortunately, unlike most other nutrients, this useful phytochemical does not become less effective if subjected to heat, but is noticeably strengthened by going through the cooking process. . Its most important advantage is that it behaves as an antioxidant and is believed to be of use in the fight to lower the chances of contracting cancer. This useful phytochemical is the most efficacious quencher of singlet oxygen, which is linked with skin aging. It is also thought by many researchers to slow down the progression of diseases affecting arterial blood vessels. |
