How do you know that the problems would not have been much worse if you had
not been on the Atkins program?

My health has improved some since on the Atkins program. I stated that.

My guess is that your low-carb eating kept
you much healthier than you would have been otherwise and minimized your
sumptoms.


Yes I am much healthier. The pain in the knees, migraines, sleep apnea, IBS,
have cleared up.

This would make more sense than your negative take, since for most of us the
type of symptoms that you describe have all improved over time on Atkins.

Questioning Atkins is a negative take? I don't think it is. One of the concerns
I stated was the eating of certain meats that can cause Gout, or Gout like
symptoms.
