I second all the positive comments and findings above. He saved my life after I was subjected to slow killing by "doctors" puttinmg me on vegetarian (crap) diet (no fat, no cholesterol) for 10 years and getting worse. After two months on his diet and oral chelation therapy, I lost weight, cleared my veins, blood pressure dropped to normal, got off the pills, regained my mental capacity and alertness. I sure enjoy eating normal food again.
I had the chance to thank Dr. Atkins personally for saving my life and have him sign his book for me. What a nice a humble person he was!
Maybe the angels are getting fat up there and good God called him home. May he RIP.
That's wonderful that you got to thank him!
