The Sonoma Diet
2005—Dr. Connie Guttersen, R.D., Ph.D
Characteristics: Three stages, or “waves,” with certain foods and portion sizes that should be consumed for each “wave.”
Strengths: Emphasizes whole grains, vegetables, nutrient dense foods, and low sugar diet. Permanent weight loss is emphasized through behavior modification.
Weaknesses: None.
Comments: Provides healthy weight loss with low calorie but nutrient-dense foods. Discusses the importance of exercise.
South Beach Diet
2005—Arthur Agatston, M.D
Characteristics: Based on glycemic index, promotes switching to “good carbs” to control cravings and prevent insulin resistance. Recommends “good fats” for heart disease prevention and to control hunger pangs.
Strengths: Emphasizes whole-grains, legumes, low-fat dairy, vegetables, and heart-healthy fats.
Weaknesses: Unnecessarily restricts “high glycemic index” fruits and vegetables such as carrots, bananas, pineapple, and other fruits. Difficult to maintain long term.
Comments: Diet is low in calories, which is most likely responsible for weight-loss. Diet plan dichotomizes foods into “good” and “bad.”
YOU: On A Diet-The Owner’s Manual for Waist Management
2009—Mehmet C. Oz M.D. and Michael F. Roizen M.D.
Characteristics: Focuses on controlling waistline, rather than weight. Claims the relationship between chemicals and hormones that influence hunger, and those signaling satiety, are the keys to ending yo-yo dieting. Lists foods and supplements that fight fat, decrease appetite, and combat inflammation. Also discusses current options for drugs and weight-loss surgery.
Strengths: Makes no ‘magic bullet’ claims. Focuses on proper food choices, portion control, and exercise.
Weaknesses: Some question about factual accuracy (i.e. female body produces progestin). Some advice is not necessarily supported by peer reviewed research (i.e. eating at night makes you fat). Some readers are turned off by “dumbed down” language and “childish” cartoons used throughout the book.
Comments: A popular diet book, partly due to the author’s high profile in the media. Most advice is sound, but exercise and menu recommendations may be unrealistic for most readers.
Eat This Not That: Thousands of Simple Food Swaps That Can Save You 10, 20, 30 Pounds-or More!
2007—David Zinczencko with Matt Goulding
Characteristics: A guide to making more healthful food choices when dining out at restaurants.
Strengths: The guide is easy to use and simple. It helps one make more healthful choices when dining out, and exposes drawbacks to meals that may seem healthful (i.e. high fat fish filet at Burger King, or high sodium salmon teriyaki at Macaroni Grill). It is easy to carry around for quick reference.
Weaknesses: Some suggestions may be confusing or contradictory for many readers.
Comments: Though cooking meals at home is almost always more healthful than eating out, this guide serves as a helpful resource for making healthy choices when dining out .
