The Story of the Atkins Diet Part 1

A profile of Dr. Robert Atkins, the diet doctor diet whose theories on nutrition have changed the way Americans think about eating. Atkins's low-carb approach and 4-step program have become an obsession for many people at a time when two-thirds of Americans are overweight or obese. But the Atkins diet has its detractors, some of whom say that its emphasis on high-cholesterol foods can make it dangerous.

I love the lady who slams Atkins for not being a legitimate scientist. She had the title 'nutritionist' below her name. Lol...

@MarianoSimon Me too! At first, I doubted it now, Im happy that I found it,.. the effort that ive been performing the last couple of weeks is really worth it.. The site is WeightLossAction.Info by the way..

@dxburner222 You are risking your life on this diet. Atkins uses faulty, cherry picked science. Message me if you want the facts.

end of story

@MrMaryJanes Or, most likely, there is no conspiracy and he really did have an infection. I think you would agree, you cannot accept the facts that support your argument while trying to disregard and change the facts that don't. So, your argument "Somebody must have secretly changed it" is very "tinfoil-hat conspiracy."

[MrMaryJanes]

@civitasdei hahaha right. I know what it said. They probably changed it so that scam diet wouldn't lose its customers.

[civitasdei]

@MrMaryJanes Actually, if you read the autopsy report it said that he had heart complications caused by an infection... completely different than a "heart attack." Once again, you could have googled that one, too.

[MrMaryJanes]

@civitasdei The autopsy report showed he had a heart attack. He was also about 75 pounds overweight.

[civitasdei]

@MrMaryJanes Atkins did not die of a heart attack. He died of a concussion. Learn to google, noob.

[civitasdei]

The Atkins diet doesn't NOT recommend eating large amounts of bacon.
