Types of dietThe Atkins’ Diet Although it originated back in the 1960s, the atkins diet is still widely used today. Although highly controversial, it allows weight reduction whilst still eating foods that are normally considered bad for diets, like lamb and eggs. With the atkins diet you are encouraged to eat meat and fat, it is the carbs that are on the banned list. It is often referred to as a low carb/high protein, nutrition and weight loss system. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including cereals and pasta made from white flour. Unlike other diets, with the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat continues to be nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and, as a consequence, poultry.
