With the atkins diet it is considered good to eat fat and protein, it is carbohydrates that need to be avoided. Because of this, it is known as a low carbohydrate/high protein, diet. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including cereals and pasta made from white flour. With this diet the foods you are encouraged to eat continues to be nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish & poultry.

The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a weight loss system created by Dr. arthur agatston which stresses that one should eat "good carbohydrates" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Doctor agatston developed his nutritional system as an aid to patients with heart conditions, as a consequence of his analysis of scientific studies completed on other diets. Good foods include, canadian bacon, turkey breast, fish and shellfish, parmesan cheese, pecan halves, nonfat yoghurt and certain vegetables, such as green beans, eggplant and water chestnuts. Foods high in flavonoids (inlcudes olive oil, broccoli, yams & dill) The nutrients called 'flavonoids' found in these fruit, vegetables and pulses are believed to be helpful in fighting cancer. Doctors investigating the properties of flavonoids suspect that they may also have numerous healthy properties, including, but not limited to, anti-viral and antiplatelet capabilities.
