South Beach Diet has been making people lose weight for a decade
now. Though its close counterpart Atkins works on similar grounds, yet
they are substantially different in terms of structure and carb levels.
South Beach diet has been conceived by a cardiologist, Arthur Agatston
who is MD of Mount Sinai Cardiac Prevention Center in Miami Beach,
Florida.
There are fundamentally two things South Beach Diet works on:-
- Fats - Banning unhealthy fats and promoting healthy ones.
- Carbs - Encourages intake of carb that are low in sugar and Glycemic
Index. These carbs don't cause rapid fluctuations in blood sugar, which
is responsible for carb craving.
