The Atkins’ Diet Developed by dr. robert atkins in the 1960s, the popular atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last few years. Popular with many famous celebrities, it claims to allow weight reduction whilst allowing many foods that would not be part of a normal diet, such as pork and some dairy produce.

With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, amongst them, cereals and pasta made from white flour. With this diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and olive oil. |
