And buying in season encourages local producers who, boosted by factors like the rise in farmers' markets, are building a more sustainable food industry.

The Atkins’ Diet
First invented by doctor atkins in the sixities, the atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last decade. Having many well known film stars amongst its supporters, it allows fat reduction whilst encouraging you to eat foods that are normally considered bad for diets, like beef and hard cheese.
On the atkins diet you eat protein and fat, it is the carbs that must be avoided. It is referred to as a high protein, low carb, weight loss program.
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.
Unlike other diets, with the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are still nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter & olive oil.
