Five years ago, with the publication of The South Beach Diet, renowned
Miami cardiologist Dr. Arthur Agatston set out to change the way America
eats. Now he has an even more ambitious goal: to change the way America
lives by helping Americans become fitter as well as thinner and
healthier . . . for life.
In the all-new The South Beach Diet Supercharged, Dr. Agatston shows
you how to rev up your metabolism and lose weight faster while
following the proven healthy eating principles of the original diet:
choose good carbs, good fats, lean protein, and low-fat dairy.
Collaborating with Dr. Joseph Signorile, a professor of exercise
physiology at the University of Miami, Dr. Agatston presents a
cutting-edge, three-phase workout that perfectly complements the three
phases of the diet itself. Based on the latest exercise science, this
ease-into-it fitness program combines low- and high-intensity interval
exercise (with a focus on walking) and functional core body-toning
exercises. The result: You'll look fitter and you'll burn more fat and
calories all day--even at rest.
Also included is the latest nutritional research on how specific foods
high in vitamins, minerals, fiber, and a host of phytonutrients help
keep you healthy; new and expanded lists of Foods to Enjoy;
taste-tempting Meal Plans for phases 1 and 2; and dozens of
easy-to-prepare new recipes, including Eggs Frijoles,
Chock-Full-of-Veggies Chili, Roasted Tomato Soup, Homestyle Turkey
Meatloaf, and South Beach Diet Tiramisu. In every chapter you'll find
inspiring success stories from real-life South Beach dieters and plenty
of effective weight loss tips. And as an added bonus, Dr. Agatston
answers the questions you've most often asked him about the diet since
the original book was published.
