Dr. Arthur Agatston, an established cardiologist, created The South Beach Diet™ in the mid-1990s in response to his disillusionment with the low-fat, high-carbohydrate diet that the American Heart Association recommended.

Today, South Beach Diet followers have shed millions of pounds to lead healthier lives.

Although the South Beach Diet is a low carb diet, you don’t have to give up all carbs. Instead, you’ll be encouraged to make wise carb decisions such as whole grains and certain fruits and vegetables; the right fats, such as olive and canola oil; and lean sources of protein.

You’ll find plenty of information on The South Beach Diet in the books below to guide you to leading a healthier, more active lifestyle.

Omnivore’s Dilemma : A Natural History of Four Meals >>>

“What’s for Dinner?”

If you’re like me, this is a thought that passes through your mind at least once a day. Generally it is a thought related to fulfilling hunger or boredom or socialization, or to satisfy the family.

However in Omnivore’s Dilemma, bestselling author Michael Pollan explores this question in detail, revealing that our food choices have profound implications for our health and the health of the environment.

He follows the food chain from the ground to the table, revealing the hidden components of what we unwittingly ingest.

The Omnivore’s Dilemma is a plea to stop and think about the whole process of eating. After you read it, “What’s for dinner” will have an entirely different meaning, and your food choices will be much more healthy.
