South Beach Diet
It seems the South Beach Diet is even working for Bill Clinton and his traveling entourage. Jamie Oliver's famous London restaurant, named Fifteen, had to make last minute changes to their menu options making them South Beach Diet friendly.
The diet was developed by a cardiologist, Arthur Agatston, practicing in the Miami, Florida area. The diet first appeared in a book of the same name, published by Rodale Press.
The foods included in the diet
The makers of popular Oreo cookies and macaroni cheese, Kraft Foods Inc, will be adding a Diet range of foods to its line-up this spring. The new diet range will include cereals, pizzas, wraps, and entrees.
This news comes as interest in low carb diets, such as Atkins, are beginning to slump. Dr Arthur Agaston, creator of the South Beach diet said that the new range of diet of the South beach foods will help to clear up a common misconception that the south beach diet is a low carb diet. The new Kraft Foods line up will not be marketed as a "low carb food" range, but rather focus on healthy amounts of the "right carbs" and the "right fats".
Good Carbs, Great!
A Diet like this is related trial done in the Netherlands recently involved feeding 26 males good carbohydrates (complex carbs) for breakfast one day, and then bad carbs (simple carbohydrates) for breakfast the following day.
The results won't seem surprising to anyone familiar with the South Beach Diet. The researchers found that those consuming a complex carbohydrate breakfast (whole grain breads and cereals) felt more energetic and less hungry, throughout the day, than those who ate the simple carbohydrates.
The consumption of the simple refined carbs for breakfast (which the South Beach Diet advises against) resulted in increased glucose and insulin levels, triglyceride levels and free fatty acids.
Atkins follows the South Beach scheme
The traditional "high fat, low carb" Atkin's diet is now following the South Beach Diet advice of discriminating against bad fats such as saturated animal fats. The Atkins diet has long been a concern from many intuitionalists and health experts due to the high proportion of bad saturated fats that traditionally lead to heart disease. A large forthcoming advertising campaign, the people behind the Atkins diet have issued a warning saying that only 20% of a dieter's total calories should come from saturated fats. Some still believe this figure is too high.
The discrimination against bad fats (for example, saturated animal fats) and bad carbs (simple carbohydrates) has always been the focus of the Diet. The South Beach Diet is a naturally healthier alternative to Atkins
