Thinking about trying a low carb diet?

 Already tried low carb?

The truth is that Atkins is not a diet. On most diets you'll be hungry a fair percentage of the time. On Adkins, you'll develop control of your hunger and cravings.

The Atkins diet plan, created by Dr. Robert Atkins, is a high-protein, low-carbohydrate Diet plan that calls for no refined sugars or flour, very low carbohydrates, and as much
meat and fat as you want.

The Atkins diet encourages
people to cut down on carbohydrates and eat dairy products, meat and fish.

Many people have found the Adkins diet to be a successful and healthy diet plan, drawn up by Dr Robert Atkins 30 years ago, the diet has gained converts in recent years among film stars and models.

The brain is a hungry organ that cannot function at optimal levels without the proper fuels.

Studies also show that lower levels of essential fatty acids can result in problems with learning, behavior, temper, sleep, and immune function.

Your brain is about 60 percent fat, with Omega-3 essential fatty acids the most abundant fat in your brain. This essential fatty is extremely important for communication and transmission between brain cells.

Because the body does not make essential fatty acids, they are only available through our diets or through supplementation.

The best source of Omega-3 fatty acids is cold water fish like salmon, herring, tuna, cod, flounder, trout and shrimp. Other sources of essential fatty acids (Omega-3 and Omega-6) are nuts, soybean, walnut oil, olive oil and flaxseed oil.

AMINO ACIDS: Amino acids, the building blocks of protein in the body, literally feed the brain. Amino acids promote the production of various neurotransmitters and enzymes critically needed in the brain for communication between brain cells, smooth and balanced cognition and fluid transition from thought to disciplined action.

Foods high in complete protein are excellent sources of amino acids. Good sources of complete proteins include meat, fish, eggs, dairy products and soy. Yogurt is the only animal-derived complete protein that dieticians recommend for frequent use in the diet.

For vegetarians, brown rice served with beans, seeds, nuts or wheat make a complete protein. All soy products also make a complete protein.


You should be eating a diet high in fiber, low in saturated fat, and low in refined sugars (preferably removing them completely!). Sweeten your drinks and foods with honey or stevia instead. Eat foods every day that are high in vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc, and selenium. These nutrients protect the liver, heart, brain, and other organs from free radical damage. Limit your caffeine intake, or stop using it altogether (caffeine can cause breast tenderness and pain). Limit red meats (have you seen the crap that goes into cattle feed?!), and add fresh fish to your diet at least twice per week. Eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, particularly dark leafy greens, whole grains, and legumes. Pay attention to getting enough calcium in your diet to promote healthy bones and teeth, by eating natural organic yogurt, drinking natural organic milk, eating natural (not processed!) organic cheeses, eating enough dark leafy greens (spinach is an excellent source of calcium!). For those of you who are lactose-intolerant, you owe it to yourself to give whole organic goat milk a try. Many people who are diagnosed as lactose-intolertant find they have no problems when drinking/using whole goat milk. This is because most goat farmers don't feed their goats the additives most cattle feed has, and the composition is different than cow milk.

This was a famous diet in the 1970s that was developed by Herman Tarnower. Its secret is to divide carbohydrates, proteins, and fats into certain percentages. The diet lasts for 14 days and does allows fruit substitutes for certain foods. The Scarsdale Diet is 43% protein, 22.5% fat, and 34.5% carbohydrates.

What’s on the Scarsdale Diet Menu?
Breakfast is generally the same every day. You have half a grapefruit, a slice of protein bread, and coffee or tea. Many of the lunches insist that you have assorted cold cuts, but you are restricted to certain meats. Dinner often involves animal protein or seafood.

Weighing in on the Scarsdale Diet
The Scarsdale Diet claims to lead to quick and efficient weight loss. It is also simple to follow as it has a meal plan mapped out. The lack of calories is why most people lose weight on this diet. Therefore, it isn't exactly a healthy route to weight loss. Also, since it's so high in protein, it can be very easy to consume an unhealthy amount of fat.
