 | | What is the Atkins Diet? | | by Squish, Oct 29, 2008 | | In the late 20th century, a new diet designed by Dr. Robert Atkins caught on. The Atkins diet, as it came to be known, was the first of the low-carbohydrate diets. The diet is radically different from most and appears to be almost paradoxical. Rather than cutting down on what you eat, the diet simply requires that you don’t eat carbohydrates and instead increase protein and fat intake. | | Comments(0) Liked It: 15 |

We know what the diet book writers say, but what's the actual truth when there are two kinds of carbohydrates and diets don't work on extremes? Learn the differences between "good", "bad", and "modified" carbohydrates to properly balance your diet for success. | | Comments(0) Liked It: 0 |
