Atkins diet

 

I guess all of you already heard about the Atkins diet, technically speaking it’s a high protein low carbohydrate diet. Proteins are poultry, meat, fish and eggs and butter cream and cheese are high fat foods, these are ok since your calorie intake is reduced. The no no ones are carbohydrates like potatoes, rice, bread, chocolate, pasta, cereals and sugar.
 
This is the one that works for me, it’s satisfying as food quantity is concerned, it’s relatively easy to follow (no portions to weigh) and the results are proven. But there is a dark side, high fat diets are not really recommended by registered dieticians if you are looking for a healthy weigh loss program or a healthy lifestyle.
 
Mind you the results are there, and the benefits on your health are also evident. I guess we might just have to be careful on how much fat we ingest. Although beneficial for weight loss but nutritionally inadequate, vitamins and supplements are recommended.
 
Further on this site, I will give you my diet in detail. Maybe it can help some of you but keep in mind that all diets are individually based so what is good for me may not be suitable for you and vice versa.
 
There is a lot of hype over the Atkins diet, but there is little evidence of the long term effects on an individual’s health. Thus said, it works for me and you don’t have to be a brain surgeon to buy a little calorie book or look them up on the web and eat what is low carbohydrate content.
 
A word of caution, it is always wise to be aware of your medical condition before undertaking a diet whatever it is. So if you’re not sure, see a physician and go for it. Remember, “will power” will get you through it and if you decide to undertake this particular diet, let me know the outcome and how it works for you.
