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
