The Return of the Atkins Diet

Hmm, that couldn't clog up my arteries could it?

Despite the inventor of the Atkins Diet, Dr Robert Atkins being clinically obese and suffering heart disease when he died in 2003 aged 72, it seems that it wasn't the last nail in the coffin for the diet which 3million Britons followed during it's peak. No, Fitbitch has learned that it's back only now called The All-New Atkins Advantage Diet (http://www.atkins.com/Home.aspx).
Unlike the orginal diet which ruled out carbohydrates forcing the body to use fat as energy stores, this one allows you to eat them - although in limited amounts.
In the first two weeks, you're allowed just 20g of carbohydrates, increasing to 120g although only if you exercise too. But the major change seems to be that the diet now advises exercise - and to limit the high fat proteins such as cheese and red meat that many Atkins dieters used to gorge on before. Hmmm, methinks there will be another book out soon!
