	South Beach diet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The South Beach diet, developed by Miami, Florida-area cardiologist Arthur Agatston, emphasizes the consumption of "good carbs" and "good fats." Dr. Agatston developed this diet for his cardiac patients based upon his study of scientific dieting research.
		Agatston believes that excess consumption of so-called "bad carbohydrates", such as the rapidly-absorbed carbohydrates found in foods with a high glycemic index, creates an insulin resistance syndrome—an impairment of the hormone insulin's ability to properly process fat or sugar.
		A 2004 study of the South Beach Diet by Agatston, et al., reviewed a 1998-1999 trial completed by 54 participants over the course of a year.

		Agatston: The key elements are using the good fats -- Mediterranean oils, olive oil, canola oil, the omega-3 fish oils and the oils found in almost all nuts, along with the good carbohydrates, which are the vegetables, the whole-grain breads and whole fruits.
		Agatston: Dean Ornish developed his diet many years ago when it was noted that societies that had very low fat and high carbohydrate diets had no heart disease or stroke.
		Agatston: No, there are no special medical conditions, but if a dieter is on medications for high blood pressure, for diabetes, for heart failure, then adjustments of medication may be necessary as the diet is started or it may be preferable to begin in Phase 2.

	Burning Void--Reviews: "The South Beach Diet," by Dr. Arthur Agatston
		Arthur Agatston, who created the diet, originally created it to modulate blood chemistry, not to help with weight loss, since he's a cardiologist who wanted to help his patients with issues such as cholesterol level.
		Agatston struck me as having a surprisingly good grasp on the psychology of your average dieter.
		One interesting thing to note is that Agatston doesn't recommend most "low-fat" foods or substitutes other than dairy, because the fat tends to be replaced by sugar, which is generally worse in his scenario.

		Agatston doesn t claim The South Beach Diet to be high-protein or high-fat (not the best fat used), but it is. You must enjoy lots of lean cuts of beef, chicken, pork, veal (baby calves starved of mother's milk) and fish.
		In twelve chapters Dr. Agatston explains how as a cardiologist he was concerned over the connection between heart disease and obesity and that the high-carbohydrate, low-fat diet recommended by the American Medical Association was only contributing to those problems.

	Is Dr. Arthur Agatston Fearing the Loss of Popularity of South Beach Diet?
		Dr. Arthur Agatston, the cardiologist who developed South Beach Diet has stated in a recent interview that the diet is not low-carb, as everybody labels it.
		Speculating the wave of decrease in popularity of the low-carb diets, many hastened to say that Dr. Agatston's recent statement is issued from his fear that the diet would fail altogether taken by this wave.
		The way I see it, the allegation was made not necessarily as a defense against the popularity fall, but as a reaction against frequent associations with low-carb diets, especially with Atkins diet, with which it shares slight resemblance but of which it fundamentally differs.

		Agatston, a doctor based at Miami Beach's Mt. Sinai Medical Center, found that his patients not only were unable to stay on various popular diets but their cholesterol and blood sugar levels remained dangerously high after trying these plans.
		Agatston advocates combining the "bad" with the "good." For example, take whole wheat bread and dip it into olive oil, rather than using butter.
		One good point Agatston does make is if you add fiber right before you eat a meal in the form of say a spoonful of Metamucil you will slow down the processing of your food and feel fuller.
