The Atkins diet has gone the same way as the Hoover vacuum cleaner. "Atkins" has almost become synonymous for any diet that restricts carbohydrate intake. In the 1960s, Dr. Robert C. Atkins was the first to experiment with a protein-rich, fat-rich and carbohydrate-poor diet. In 1972, he published his book "Dr. Atkins´ Diet Revolution." Back then, his theories flew in the face of established knowledge and were highly controversial. Nowadays, the medical profession acknowledges the value of low-carb diets to lower insulin levels and prevent heart disease.

The absence of carbohydrates forces the body to burn fat. This process is called Benign Dietary Ketosis. As a result, insulin production goes down, which prevents the body from storing energy as fat. According to Dr. Atkins, even a small amount of carbohydrates is counterproductive to inducing BDK. He recommends a carbohydrate intake of no more than 60 g daily to keep weight off.
