It is bread and not butter that 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 that 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 start 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 with recipes, menus, carbohydrate counters, and strategies for staying with the plan, this book is less clear than its predecessor. It veers back and forth between how to begin and how to maint...

The statistics are staggering. Thirteen million Americans have been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes; another 5.2 million don't know that they have it. Each year about 200,000 people die from its complications. But the good news is that Type 2 diabetes is largely preventable, if you know how to identify your risks. Dr. Robert C. Atkins recognized that diabetes and obesity are twin epidemics, and that the way to reverse both is to permanently change the way people eat. The Atkins Blood Sugar Control Program (ABSCP), presented for the first time in this book, helps you identify metabolic signposts The statistics are staggering.

But the good news is that Type 2 diabetes is largely preventable, if you know how to identify your risks. Dr. Robert C. Atkins recognized that diabetes and obesity are twin epidemics, and that the way to reverse both is to permanently change the way people eat. The Atkins Blood Sugar Control Program (ABSCP), presented for the first time in this book, helps you identify metabolic signposts Two colleagues of the late Dr. Robert Atkins take on the obesity epidemic's deadly twin: type 2 diabetes. Dr. Mary Vernon and Jacqueline Eberstein, RN, adapt the carb-cutting, fat-allowing Atkins nutritional approach as a preemptive strike against this fast-growing killer. Diabetes--defined here as a condition in which glucose or blood sugar is above the normal range--is viewed as a preventable problem. "What we hope we have created in this book is a realistic and practical guide to wiping out type 2, one person at a time." Since obesity is the major risk factor for diabetes, they begin with the "fat lie" (i.e., the belief that fat causes obesity) to voice the Atkins mantra: low fat means high carbs and high carbs are broken down into sugar. With a convincing mix of essay/picture testimo...

This is a breezy, chatty, non-technical, fun-to-read explanation of low carbohydrate dieting -- why it works, the surprising health benefits, and most importantly, how to "do" the diet. Or, rather, diets,since the book details three very different main approaches to controlling carbohydrates (including the Basic Low Carb Diet, similar to Atkins or Protein Power, and the Mini-Binge Diet, popularized as The Carbohydrate Addict's Diet), plus several variations, finally summing up the basic principles which tie them all together. The point is to give the reader the tools necessary to construct a new way of eating that will fit his or her body, psyche, and lifestyle, thus allowing them to stay slim, energetic, and healthy for life.

The Weight Loss Secret that Nobody is Talking About Do you struggle with maintaining weight loss? Perhaps you stick to a Paleo, Gluten-Free, or Low-Carb diet for a while, but you just can’t maintain it? This is not an uncommon situation. I have dealt with it myself, as have millions of other people. But millions of people have also successfully lost weight and kept it off on Paleo, Gluten-Free, or Low-Carb diets. After talking to and helping many of these people, I’ve found that they have at least one thing in common. And for some reason, nobody is talking about it. A Gluten-Free or Paleo Diet Plan Alone is Not Enough Everyone will tell you that all you need is to know what to eat. But that’s not true. You already know that many foods are unhealthy, but you eat them anyway. What you really need is support and encouragement for sticking to a healthy diet and lifestyle. But very few people ever get this type of support. Paleo Weight Loss is NOT as Easy as Claimed Gluten-Free, Paleo, and Low-Carb diets are fantastic. They get junk out of your diet and have helped millions of people lose weight. However, it’s tough to stick to any of these diets over the long-term. And that makes maintaining weight loss very tough. Everybody is tempted by bad food, and we all cheat at one time or another. I’ve been through this, and everybody I talk to goes through it at one time or another. You Must have Weight Loss Support from Your Family and Friends This might sound like a small thing, but if you don’t have the support of your friends and family, then you will never be able to maintain your motivation to lose weight and keep it off. On the other hand, if you do have this support, then sticking to a Gluten-Free, Paleo, or Low-Carb diet is both easy and incredibly effective. And you can get greater results than you ever imagined. Get the Motivation to Lose Weight and Keep it Off After talking to thousands of people, I l...
