Is it okay to post some questions for my research paper here?

[researchstudent]

Hello, I’m a college student who is writing a research paper on the Atkins diet. I have a few questions for my paper, will it be okay to post them here? The majority of my paper will be based on the answers to my questions. I have put together a questioner that doesn’t ask for much other than yes or no answers and how much weight you all have lost. I promise I will not use your name or screen name in my paper. I’ll post the Atkins Diet Questioner as a reply post just reply back to it. Your participation would be very much appreciated. Thanks

Re: Is it okay to post some questions for my research paper here?

Thank you to those who are anwering my questions. Questionaire was an automatic spell check error on my computer, thanks for letting me know. I'm sure I'll never here the end of it from Dr. Compton. My paper is due on the 28th and I will stop collecting my data from here on the 14th. If there is anything else you think I should ask let me know. I don't know very much about the Atkins Diet other than what I've read on Wikkipedia and a couple of books about the diet I checked out from the library.

** It takes entirely different enzymes for digestion and metabolization of carbohydrates as it does for fat and proteins. You have low energy until the body has a chance to make the proper enzymes to metabolize the high fat, moderate protein foods for energy. It does not take the entire two weeks of induction to switch from glucose burning to fat burning for energy. It takes at most five days.
