Diet types

The Atkins’ Diet
Now nearly 5 decades old, the atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last decade. Although not accepted by all scientists, it claims to allow weight loss whilst still eating many of the foods you love, for example pork and some dairy produce.
With the atkins diet it is considered good to eat fat and protein, avoiding carbohydrates almost completely. It is often referred to as a low carbohydrate, high protein, 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.
On the atkins 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.

The Atkins’ Diet Theory
The 'science' behind the atkins diet is that if we take in fewer carbs, our bodies will consume the fat we already carry and we will reduce weight

Ingredients And Procedures

------------------------USE ON MEATS AND VEGETABLES------------------------ 1/4 lb Butter

3 Large egg yolks

2 tb Lemon juice

1/2 ts Salt

1/4 ts Pepper

Melt butter in a saucepan until bubbling hot. Place egg yolks, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a blender jar or food processor bowl. Cover and mix until just combined. Remove top and with machine running, pour hot butter into machine in a slow, steady stream. Serve sauce immediately or keep warm in a double boiler thermos bottle. Don't let the sauce boil or it will curdle and separate. Notes: Hollandise sauce can be served with asparagus, broccoli, cauliflower, leeks, or with artichokes as a dipping sauce. Add 2 tbs. Dijon mustard with the egg yolks or 1 tbs. freshly snipped dill or other herbs for heightened flavor. If you should end up with a thin, watery liquid, pour the liquid into a dry bowl. Then wash and throughly dry the blender. Place an additional egg yolk in the container and while the machine is running, pour the hollandise mixture into the container in a slow, steady stream. Process until thickened. Recipe acquired from Jean Allen (GRDG72B) Prodigy, December 29, 1991.
