Default As a physician I'm worried about those on low carb diets

We doctors don't get much nutrition training in medical school. So when
my patients started coming to me on the Atkins Diet, I frankly didn't
know what to tell them. Atkins' recommendations certainly seemed at
odds with what little I was taught. So I decided to try to figure out
the truth for myself.
What I was first struck by is that many critics
of the diet hadn't even read any of Atkins books! So first things first--
I first every edition. Then I went to the medical library and dug
though the 30 years of research done on low carb diets.
I put all the
research I found on a new website I created:
http://www.AtkinsFacts.
org
I would love everyone's feedback.
Basically I started to become
really concerned about the long-term welfare of my patients that have
chosen this path and I wanted to share my research with others.
Please
check out http://www.AtkinsFacts.org and let me know what you think,
-
Michael
