Publisher's Summary

The Atkins Diet for Beginners shows how anyone can improve their health and achieve weight loss goals fast, using a proven system that has been around a long time!

The Atkins diet is a very popular low carb diet. To be more precise, we can say it is about a lifestyle low in carbohydrates. This is a solution that many people have been using for decades to lose weight and improve their overall health fast. 

Dr. Robert Atkins invented this low carbohydrate diet in 1972, and his books became a best seller. 

The theme of his main book, Diet Revolution, is that you can lose weight with a diet that is mostly high protein and fat foods (Healthy not refined or processed). Atkins was one of the first to claim the effectiveness of a low carb diet to lose weight. 

"As long as you eliminate carbohydrates from your diet, you will lose weight." (Robert Atkins) 

Over 50 scientific studies support the low carbohydrate science behind the Atkins diet.

Originally, the Atkins diet was perceived as unhealthy because Atkins was encouraging a lot of saturated fat. This is the main reason why the Atkins diet has attracted the wrath of various health organizations. However, new studies have shown that saturated fats are not as bad as always thought. 

Despite the criticism he faced in his early days, the Atkins diet has become extremely popular with millions of people around the world and has been given dozens of books. 

The Atkins diet is a little similar to the ketogenic diet, in that both diets recommend consuming large amounts of protein and fat, and drastically reducing its carbohydrate intake. The body draws its energy from carbohydrates and fats. It is only when it runs out of these two macronutrients that the body starts to draw its protein energy. 

With the Atkins diet, the body goes from burning carbohydrates to burning fat. Foods high in carbohydrates cause a rise in blood sugar, which sends the body the signal that it must produce more insulin. Insulin is a hormone that produced in excess, causes the storage of fat. 

Robert Atkins' diet limits foods known to increase blood sugar and insulin production. This diet significantly limits the consumption of carbohydrates; so the body is forced to burn fat. There is no caloric restriction either. SIMPLE.

Food lists are very skimpy; recipes use ingredients which aren't listed. This leaves me unsure of using my own food preferences
