In the all-new The South Beach Diet Supercharged, Dr. Arthur 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 carbohydrates, 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 feel better and you'll burn more fat and calories all day long.

      Ganser and Rogers do a splendid job delivering the first-person case studies and much of the commentary in this state-of-the-art health presentation. The sections read by principal author Agatston are less enjoyable, but they do connect listeners with his helpful intent and personal story. The advice is to start with a two-week crash diet aimed at rapid weight loss, then move to a more relaxed period aimed at slower losses, and then to a maintenance phase that involves habits that should last a lifetime. Choosing good carbs and good fats helps maintain optimal blood sugar and reduce inflammation--key factors in many illnesses and cravings. This practical and warm guide encourages the everyday adjustments necessary to feeling better more of the time. T.W. (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine

      Releasing five years after cardiologist Agatston’s South Beach Diet
      hit the shelves, initiating a megamillion-dollar franchise (cookbooks, a dining guide, meal replacement bars, frozen foods, etc.), this “supercharged” version of the plan guides readers into a healthy lifestyle for the long haul. While the first book focused on ending cravings and losing and maintaining a healthy weight, here Agatston introduces a 20-minute-a-day fitness regimen, developed with exercise physiologist Signorile and Pilates instructor Kris Belding. The two-part workout—interval walking (cardio) and total body (core)—geared to boosting metabolism and preventing plateaus, works in three phases in conjunction with the diet and can be adapted to different fitness levels and conditions. An overview of Agatston’s philosophy on optimal nutrition, a recap of the diet, detailed daily fitness routines, tips on exercising efficiently, sample meal plans and simple recipes (Moroccan lemon chicken; maple-almond flan) are among the many features that make this appealing, accessible volume a worthwhile update on the original.
