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.

  • Rest in Love Dr. Atkins. If you cannot see past this real knowledge you deserve to stay fat and unhealthy.

  • @nomisyelsha He was 73 when he died. Let's see how good you look at 73.

    Not to mention, up until Atkins invented the low-carb thing, he was eating the shit everyone else is eating now (pasta, bread, grains, etc.)

  • Open your eyes! Atkins looked like death.

  • They should change the food pyramid. Put that bread on top of the pyramid, and put protein as primary.

  • I had very sore hips and back and the diet fixed it in a week. I am losing weight and feel wonderful. Love eating this way and I have no plans to quit.

  • love this man! thank you for all you did!

  • This nutritionist talking about how there haven't been any long term studies and we don't know the long term effects of a low carb diet, then why is she condemning it so much with all her speculation when the only current evidence is that the Atkins diet works and can improve health problems. I personally advocate a balanced diet of the 3 macros, but I hate people like her who are just illogical and rude

  • lol

    "it makes no sense"

  • @ShaytanBozorg It's what the Media blows out of proportion, not the media! In the same way it's what men do, and men is general that caused crime!

  • Atkins starts 40 YEARS AGO. AND STILL we're stuck at the beginning. wtf.
