blue.....i was so impressed with dr atkins approach to his research. hes a cardiologist and he was so frustrated with not being able to help his patients so he said, what happened this century, particularly the last 20 years. to the american diet? the most advanced country in the world should be the healthiest. it came down to processed foods in the form of sugar and white flour. we have children coming down with type II adult onset diabetes! why? all the fast food and cereal and pizza and sandwiches and cookies and chips.....its really really scary! when we go off the diet once in a while and eat "regularly", we actually get digestion distress....really bad! and you know what? this is gross but true. i have been plagued with constipation most of my life. continual use of something or other to get things worked out if you know what i mean...snicker, snicker. HOWEVER, in the 6 months, i have not had to use anything at all. thats just one of the side benefits. one of the others is my skin condition. it seems the atkins diet is a toxic purge or something because my skin is so clear and the texture has smoothed out. it could be the food or it could be all the extra water i drink now. maybe a combination. i get so mad when i see agencies and "experts" put atkins down. he just sits there and defends his program! no anger, no ranting. but i have seen some reports that are leaning in his direction. very good to see, isnt it??
