A profile of Dr. Robert Atkins, the diet doctor diet whose theories on nutrition have changed the way Americans think about eating. Atkins’s low-carb approach and 4-step program have become an obsession for many people at a time when two-thirds of Americans are overweight or obese. But the Atkins diet has its detractors, some of whom say that its emphasis on high-cholesterol foods can make it dangerous.

@LiveWisely proof please?
Thank you so much Dr Atkins… We missed you..Your diet protect to human’s health from cancer…Because biggest risk in cancer is SUGAR and FLOUR…We learned this fact from you….
what i really hate about the critics is they constantly say there is no research.. what do they think are in his books?
@403766 It’s not even clear to me that it has been proven to get quick weight loss. In that Fumento/Taubes discussion, Fumento points out that there’s a national registry that tracks proven weight loss (so that people with documented success can help others learn what works), and Atkins diet just doesn’t show up. Taubes’ replies that there is self-selection bias, but why would successful Atkinsers be shier than other dieters? Likewise medical studies. And his use of ozone is a matter of record.
@MatroidX
It’s not a diet you stay on forever but is proven to get quick weight loss no matter what people said about him and his revoked license.
I’m seeing only positive things said about Atkins here. So I’m wondering, why are you not bothered by his use of ozone to `help’ cancer patients, and the fact that his medical license was temporarily revoked?
In any case, I am confused by this total disconnect… For instance, any doctors I ask (including relatives) state that the Atkins’ diet is obviously bad/dumb/harmful. Likewise, any discussion of the data: google “reason fumento atkins” and the follow-up response by Taubes. Explain plz
Dr Atkins is my hero!
