Please NO atkins talk here Atkins Facts

[Guest guest]

Thank you. I am well aware that Atkins is vegetarian unfriendly as well as

intrinsically unhealthy! *lol* So is the Dr who has just put up this website to

warn of the dangers ;=)

 

I posted the link because I get queries and comments off list as well as on

from time to time about low carb diets and there has been recent talk of being

able to do Atkins as a vegetarian. I do not think, as moderator of a health and

slimming list, I could in conscience ignore this excellent *new* website, by a

medical doctor, which warns against this lowcarb diet, and not bring it to

everyone's attention.

 

Honestly, Ranvaig, I know how you feel ;=) I go blue in the face at the mention

of the late diet guru's name. You do not have to read about it if you don't want

to. As for it being a sad fad that will soon blow over, I wish that were true

:=(

This fad, the Atkins diet, has been around and doing its damage for some

three decades now.

 

But thanks for your warning against it. I know you meant it kindly.

 

Best love,

 

Pat ;=)
