NORTHFIELD, Ill., Dec. 11 /PRNewswire/ — To help with New Year’s (and year-long) weight management and fitness goals, there are South Beach Diet(R) foods from Kraft that help satisfy hunger with protein or fiber for every meal occasion.

“Feeling full between meals helps curb overeating and makes it easier to stick to a diet or eating plan so you can lose or maintain weight,” said Howard Brandeisky, Vice President of South Beach Diet(R) foods, Kraft. “That’s one reason why we’ve created many of the South Beach Diet(R) foods to help satisfy hunger with protein or fiber, whether you’re following the principles of the South Beach Diet(R) or simply looking for a nutritious meal or snack.”

Research shows that protein and fiber contribute to hunger satisfaction, also known as “satiety.” And many of the South Beach Diet(R) foods from Kraft are good or excellent sources of protein and fiber.
