Intended to catapult your body into a state of fat meltdown, Dr. Atkins's diet has taken America by storm. It targets insulin, the hormone this regulates blood sugar levels. The bodies of much overeaters are continually in a state of hyperinsulinism; their bodies are so adept at releasing insulin to help transform excess carbohydrates to fat this there's always too much of the hormone circulating throughout the body. This puts the body into a bind; it always wants to store fat. Even when people together with hyperinsulinism try to lose weight--particularly when they cut fat but enhance carbohydrate consumption--their efforts will fail. This is why Dr. Atkins refers to insulin as "the fat-producing hormone."

Dr. Atkins's diet is extremely low in carbohydrates, which helps to regulate insulin production and reduce circulating insulin; less insulin soon outcomes in less fat storage and fewer food cravings. The diet is far from torturous, though--those who've tried it attest this hunger is not a part of this plan. Ninety percent of Dr. Atkins's patients--extra than 25,000 of them--have experienced dramatic weight loss. The book consists of recipes for such luscious, low-carb dishes as lobster soup, zabaglione, sea bass, and blueberry ice cream, and even consists of a carbohydrate gram counter and menus.

By Victor Thomas (San Francisco, CA)
Dr. Robert Atkins is considered the godfather of low carb diets. He first published his book Dr. Atkin's Diet Revolution in the early 1970's and later reintroduced it as Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution in the early 1990's. For many years the consensus among nutrition experts was that excess fat in one's diet caused excess fat in one's body. Atkins a cardiologist by training, turned this theory on its head, and said that carbohydrates not fat, were the cause for the epidemic in obesity. The diet Atkins recommended was low carb, high protein and high fat. This caused an uproar among the diet establishment, and has proven to remain controversial to this day.

The basics of this diet are to initially remove almost all carbohydrates from your diet. This includes not only breads, pastas and cereals, but also fruits and only the least starchy vegetables. The purpose of this phase is to put your body in a state of ketosis, where your hunger is turned off, and you lose a dramatic amount of weight in a short period of time. After the initial two-week phase you are allow a wider range of vegetables, along with some legumes and some dairy. This middle phase is to last so long as you are losing weight. The final phase which is the lifetime maintenance phase, you are allowed a very slight amount of carbs so long as you do not begin to put on weight.

Pros

Fast Weight Loss: You can lose weight very quickly on the Atkins diet. Results of 10lbs or more of weight loss in the first week are not unheard of. Also your hunger levels are typically reduced to zero, because hunger is triggered by your blood sugar levels, which remain low without eating carbs.

Cons

Uncomfortable: Constipation, bad breath, jaundiced skin, and extremely low energy levels are all common complaints of those on the Atkins Diet, especially during the induction phase. Also a diet of almost all protein and fat becomes very monotonous and unappealing within a short amount of time.

Bottom Line

The reason this diet is still around and still talked about is because it works....in the short term. Try it for a week and you will definitely lose weight. Ultimately the diet is unsustainable, as most people find the food choices far too limiting, and end up quitting the diet at some point. In the end what is the point of doing anything, if it can't be sustained in the long term.
Customer rating is 1 of 5  Atkins is a dangerous diet   2010-02-15
By Margaret (Oklahoma)
I' ve been on every diet on the market, low-fat, low-carb, you name it.
I was on Atkins for few years, I lost 20 pounds, but then gained the weight back.
I' m now on "the Perfect 10 Diet" which explained to me why I gained weight by messing hormones and how this diet causes cancer. I do not know what kind of harm I' ve done to my body after all these years. My doctor appointment is next week.
Customer rating is 5 of 5  Very educational, even if you are not looking to go on a diet, a must read!   2010-02-12
By Karen Soper (SW Virginia VT country)
Dr. Atkins makes so much sense! When I read this book I had many "ah ha" moments! I have heard a lot of critics complain about this diet being unhealthy, however when you read the entire book, you will see that it is actually very healthy. I think the critics did not read his book! If you think about it grains, while they occur natually, have to be processed to be eaten, which makes them less natural. While meat and vegetables and fruit can be eaten in their natural state, making them a more natural way of eating. Don't get me wrong, I love carbs and whole grains! I think they are okay to eat on occassion, but the main part of your diet should be vegetables, fruits and proteins. The best thing about the Atkins way of eating is that you can have your cake and eat it too! There are so many recipes out there that mimic what you would be giving up that you just do not feel deprived. Check out this site for an unbelievable recipe collection to go along with this book: (Don't worry it is all free - no ads, no gimicks)

Customer rating is 5 of 5  The book that started it all on my way to health and longevity   2009-11-01
By Ehleighen (Twin Cities, MN)
While I probably can't add more value to these reviews by adding my own review, this one of my favorite books. I have struggled with obesity since the age of 6. Back in about 1999 or 2000, I heard of this diet on a news program and was intrigued, went out and bought the book, found it incredibly fascinating and started this way of eating almost immediately. I lost 80 pounds. It is the easiest diet in that if you follow the program, the weight falls off effortlessly even without exercise, however it is also the hardest diet because everywhere you go is tempting food like cake, cookies, and candy, so you really need willpower. Atkins goes into great detail about why too many carbs are bad for you and your health and why fat is NOT bad. Anybody that tells you this is unhealthy and nothing but a bacon and cheese diet did not read the book in its entirety and they are naive. Since starting this diet back then, I have always followed a low-carb way of life and always will, I usually stay under 60-80 grams of carbs a day. You can't just listen to the media about everything. The media puts things out there so frequently that people just believe everything as fact, when if they would take the time to research it, it is all false! I'm refering to many things: that eating this way is bad for you, your heart, your kidneys (furthest thing from the truth); that you need to eat low fat/low calorie to lose weight and/or be healthy (not true); that you need to eat low cholesterol (definitely NOT true); that you need to eat lots of fiber (not true); that cardio is good for you and/or that you need to do cardio to lose weight (not true); that stretching is good for you (not really true either). Research things before believing them people. Other recommended reads: The Cholesterol Myth, Protein Power, Primal Blueprint, The Schwarzbein Principle, Slow Burn.
