October 26, 2007, Newsletter Issue #87: South Beach Diet

Tip of the Week

The South Beach Diet was originally designed for cardiac patients who needed to lose weight, especially those with the "apple" body type (fat concentrated mostly around the middle).

The diet starts with eliminating simple carbohydrates, those with high glycemic indexes. The South Beach Diet also encourages an increase in fiber intake and the avoiding animal (saturated) fats.

The diet seeks to create long term changes in eating habits and encourages the consumption of whole grains at every meal.
