The Atkins’ Diet
First invented by doctor atkins in the 1960s, the atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last few years. Having many well known film stars amongst its supporters, it allows fat reduction whilst allowing many of the foods you love, for example bacon and some dairy produce.
With this diet you are supposed to eat fat and protein, avoiding carbohydrates almost completely. Because of this, it is known as a high protein, low carb, weight loss regime.
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.
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.
