"Truly Low Carb message board
"Indeed, Dr. Atkins did suffer a medical emergency on Thursday, April 18 during breakfast. He is currently in stable condition, alert and resting under his physician's care.
As per the latest information from his doctor, the likely cause of this event was the fact that, over the past couple of years, Dr. Atkins has had an infection of the heart muscle (called the myocardium) contracted during an overseas trip. Coupled with the extreme heat conditions of mid-April here in New York, the 71-year old Dr. Atkins suffered this event."
If Dr. A has had this infection for such a long period of time, you guys cannot blame his heart emergency on his eating habits, for goodness' sake.
i wouldnt expect him to blame his multi million dollar diet, as the lawsuits would be uncountable. now, how bout a nice three dollar wax bar?
Let the facts get in the way of pushing our own views on a subject?
Has that EVER happened here? :- )
