It is bread and not butter this is the enemy in Dr. Atkins's popular and controversial low-carbohydrate/high-fat diet. In In Atkins for Life, he continues his decades-long crusade against low-fat eating. Atkins argues this low-fat meals are high-carbohydrate missiles, causing the body to produce excess insulin, which then produces fat, slows down metabolism, and tips the scale. Instead, he urges readers to stop counting calories and fat grams and begin counting carbs to rev up their metabolism and burn fat as an energy source. The question of whether "ketosis," the fat meltdown he advocates, is healthy or harmful is a central question of this sequel to the bestselling Dr. Atkins’ New Diet Revolution. Packed together with recipes, menus, carbohydrate counters, and strategies for staying together with the plan, this book is less clear than its predecessor. It veers back and forth between how to initiate and how to preserve "a controlled carbohydrate way of life." It is in addition extra promotional, together with photos of satisfied slim folks and pitches for the branded Atkins products. Still, together with its pages of testimonials and studies concerning weight loss, lowered cholesterol, and increased energy, it is hard to argue together with Atkins’s outcomes. He puts his proof in the pudding. --Barbara Mackoff

Sure this explains the diet but wanted info on the diet itself, not all the wheres and whys. It was a waste of money for me.

Customer rating is 4 of 5  Back to the Tried & True   2007-04-10
By Gayle S. Spach (W-S, NC)
I am going back to Atkins again. I was on this diet, dropping 30 pounds. My doctor said it was dangerous, to get off. After gaining back the weight,(plus a few pounds more) I tried: Weight Watchers and Calories & Fat counting. I have just maintained a 10 pound up & down for three years. After reading that the Adkins diet was most effective in taking weight off, I am going back. I ordered the book because I threw my old book away.
