The book also shows how to incorporate healthy activity and exercise into your week – dispelling the myth that Atkins encourages people to lose weight without taking exercise. It explains how the Atkins programme helps to decrease your risk of heart disease, prevent and control type 2 diabetes, lowers blood pressure, improves symptoms of PCOS, headaches, sinus problems, abdominal pains, acid reflux, asthma, eczema, and acne.
It also explains many of the myths surrounding Atkins. ie. that ketosis – where the body burns fat and not glucose – is perfectly safe and that most people doing Atkins see a drop in the LDL cholesterol. Also there is no study which shows that the high protein diet is dangerous for the kidneys or that eating so much protein leaches calcium from your bones and interferes with calcium absorption.
The late Dr Robert Atkins was the founder and medical director of the Atkins Center for Complementary Medicine in New York City. His books, including Dr Atkins New Diet Revolution and Dr Atkins for Life have been worldwide bestsellers, selling over 10 million copies.
