Good grief; I can't believe there are people on this forum defending the Atkins Plan - it was HORRIBLE! Yes, I read the book.

If you google "Atkins" AND "Dangerous" you get OVER 362,000 (three hundred sixty-two thousand) entires that pop up. So, take your pick as to which "DANGEROUS" article you like best!

I have argued with the Atkins sugarfree kool-aid drinkers for years concerning the Air Force diet rebadged Atkins Diet. It's simply not worth it to discuss how Dr. Atkins floated this diet in the late 1970's and it crashed like so many of his dieters eating a whole loaf of Italian bread with garlic sop. It's not worth the headache of telling them Doctor Carb was bloated and sickly when he mysteriously "fell to his death." No need to argue until you're blue in the face about the serious kidney problems awaiting all these fine people. And if they are religious, there's no need to bring up biblical principles of unbalanced heretics telling people not to enjoy foods created by God -- "touch not taste not, etc."

Save your breath. Be gentle when they crash. As for me, I think I'll have pizza today for lunch. MMMMMMMMMMMM PIZZA.

Google "Atkins diabetes" for 686,000 or "Atkins works" for 867,000. Geez, you can google for anything but reading the 1975 original version of the book (not the newer after his death version) will educate you.
