It worked as well as it could I suppose since he gained over 100 pounds on it.<br />It is NOT a healthy diet. <br />Sorry you think so.Patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16586141449898727114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8338531466519618776.post-77931877983185015352009-09-16T10:07:09.834-05:002009-09-16T10:07:09.834-05:00Sorry, but I guess I disagree with your diet comme...Sorry, but I guess I disagree with your diet comments.<br /><br />First, the news stories about that diet study were very misleading. The study found that some fatty acids, especially oleic acids, are just fine. Oleic acids are found in lots of foods, including olive oil and avocados. The study identified only palmitic acid as bad.<br /><br />Second, it is inaccurate to sat that the Atkins diet will "let you eat all the cheeseburgers you want." I don't recall that Atkins had much good to say about the buns in burgers, or any other kind of bread, for that matter.jimpurdy1943@yahoo.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12974301744118775363noreply@blogger.com
