That's Fit

Have you ever tried the "South Beach Diet?" Many millions of people have, with many success stories as well in terms of weight loss. The goal of any diet, hopefully, is to lead dieters into a new lifestyle of eating and tear down old habits which will ultimately lead to healthier eating. But, there is a higher purpose at play here.

The author of the South Beach Diet, Dr. Agatston, is a respected cardiologist and his expertise on taking care of the heart and supporting mechanisms is worth a read to anyone who considers their heart to be the most important organ in the human body.

In Dr. Agatston's book, The South Beach Heart Program: The 4-Step Plan That Can Save Your Life, the author moves through helpful preventative measures against heart disease as well as a nutrition plan that bases itself on cardiological health as a focus (instead of weight loss). Losing weight may be a secondary occurrence with the South Beach Diet, but the primary goal is quite a bit more important. That is, unless you're not concerned about future heart disease.
