Re: Guess I shoud go back to being fat and sick...
Not to bash Dr. Atkins, but before the turn of the 18th to the 19 centuries, before the invention of injectable insulin, there were, drs who prescribed avoiding flour, sugar, etc.
Even Dr. Atkins admitted he wasn't the first. But in our time, he was the "heretic" who promoted it the best with his books.
Funny part of it is, I was visiting a site where Dr. Mary Vernon (co-author of Atkins Diabetes Revolution, (ADR)) gave a series of short video answers to questions, there is a question about her history. Her answer, which was very interesting, never once mentioned her connections to Dr. Atkins. Even though her forward and other comments in ADR give credit to Atkins for his revolutionary views on low carb WOE. It would appear even today, with the growing pool of data supporting Low Carb, there is still a bit of a paranoia regarding associating ones self with Robert Atkins.
Funny... unfortunate, but funny!
