Well said Darth Pooh!
Also if you measure the cholesterol in
Atkins dieters, you will see that they may look better but their
body is nto happy!
Atkins dieters have been shown to be hypercholesteremic, which leads to clogged arteries, heart attacks etc...
(you can read up on it here:
http://www.westhertshospitals.nhs.uk...EJM%202003.pdf).
Initially cholesterol and triglycerides go down because the person is losing weight, but not many studies have followed them up for long enough to see what happens after 3-6 months. However epileptic children on a version of
Atkins have shown to have more heart problems (arrythmias) and cholesterol problems than their peers on normal diets.
