I saw an article today in Discovery (I think the current issue) about what "science" says we should eat. I didn't have time to read the whole thing (young baby at my house) but it sounded alot like SBD phase 2, didn't seem to recommend South Beach per se. I will read it when I get a chance and see if it says anything about it either way.

It does say the Mediterranean Diet is closest to what they recommend, which is not low-carb but the main doctor associated with it said it's "good fat good carb." Hmmm. sounds familiar.
