Re: Cottage Cheese?
DR Atkins with over 40 yrs experience of doing it himself and having feed back from patients doing it knows things that might trigger us to carvings so he changed what we can and can't have as aour sources of carbs. He used the glycemic load and index of foods to figure out what foods might give us trouble and to make induction as trouble free as possible all foods containing lactose were removed, nuts and seeds were removed. Once we get our ketosis going and our 14 days are up we can decide to add back foods to our way of eating based on the rankings Dr Atkins assigned them and cottage cheese is allowed back in the second rung of OWL the next phase.by the book atkinseer

Re: Cottage Cheese?
the rungs are posted in the OWL section and are in DANDR chapter 14. Dr Atkins divided the foods up in to groupings. more of the induction veggies are the first thing we add back in 5 netr grams then fresh dairy then nuts and seeds and so on up to grains on the 9th rung.by the book atkinseer

Re: Cottage Cheese?
I don't know if I have a different version or what but cottage cheese is actually on the induction list in my book... I was thinking it wasn't and I dont like it myself but found it weird its on the list. I have a book that is dandr plus 2 of his other books combined...

Re: Cottage Cheese?
