Publisher's Synopsis
The South Beach Diet has been popular for over a decade. It's a lower-carb diet that has been credited with producing rapid weight loss without hunger, all while promoting heart health. On the other hand, it's also been criticized for being a restrictive "fad" diet. On the South Beach diet, there are good carbs and fats, and there are unhealthy carbs and fats. The key to weight loss is choosing the best of each. That means lots of nonstarchy vegetables, fish, eggs, full-fat dairy, protein like chicken and turkey, whole grains and nuts. South Beach is lower in carbohydrates and higher in protein and healthy fats than the typical American diet.
There are several benefits of the South Beach diet, including its ability to produce weight loss without hunger. Research, including an analysis of 24 studies, has consistently shown that high protein, low-carb diets are effective for weight loss. Part of this is due to protein's ability to increase your metabolic rate. In addition, protein helps modify hormone levels that reduce hunger and promote fullness, so you end up naturally eating less
