Dieting tips

The Atkins’ Diet
First invented by doctor atkins in the 1960s, the atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last few years. Although not accepted by all scientists, it enables fat reduction whilst encouraging you to eat many foods that would not be part of a normal diet, like bacon and butter.
With the atkins diet you eat protein and fat, it is the carbs that are on the banned list. It is often referred to as a high protein, low carb, diet system.
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.
With this diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish & poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and olive oil.

The Atkins’ Diet Theory
The 'science' behind the famous atkins diet is that if we consume fewer carbs, we will consume our fat and we will diet successfully
