“A meat-based, low fiber diet like Atkins advocates with no fruit, or starchy vegetables, will almost double your risk of certain cancers, especially of meat-sensitive cancers, such as colon cancer.
Stomach and esophageal cancer, for example are linked to populations that do not consume sufficient fruit. Atkins’ menus average 60-75% of calories from fat and contain no fruit.”
You, and the doctor, are so far off-base as to make this my last post on the subject. It’s obvious you’ve never read any Atkins’ publications because both those sentences are patently false.
And going to some goofy website for your source.

I chose the website at random. If that one seems "goofy" to you, perhaps there is another one better suited to your tastes (pun intended). I have read Atkins publications in the past but must admit that was some time ago. However, the last place I would look for any possible health issues associated with the Atkins diet would be their very own publication.
With all that is going wrong in this world, the Atkins diet is one of the least of my concerns. You apparently think it's a good diet plan with no negative health risks and I respectfully disagree. Have a nice day. :)
