The South Beach Diet Approach to Carbs and Fats

Phase 1 Restrictions: During the initial phase, all fruits, starches, and complex carbohydrates are strictly eliminated to rapidly alter body chemistry and reduce cravings.
Introduction of "Good" Carbs: In later phases, the diet encourages a return to carbohydrates with a low glycemic index, which means they are digested more slowly and prevent sharp blood sugar spikes.
Emphasis on Healthy Fats: The program advises replacing saturated fats with monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, such as olive oil, nuts, and avocados, to support heart health.
Protein Foundation: Lean proteins remain a core component of the diet across all phases to help maintain muscle mass and promote satiety while managing overall calorie intake.
