ATKINS DIET PLAN


I think that if a person wants to remain vegetarian, they're just going to have to go hungry. Robert Atkins


Atkins Diet Plan was a revolution some time ago but thanks to science we know exactly how it works these days and why it can be dangerous to many of us.

Atkins Diet is one of Ketogenic diets which mean that it will put you in state of ketogenesis. Ketogenesis is a positive state for our health but only for short period of time. Ketogenesis has also some healing properties but in long term run it is simply waisting of your energy or if you like money (you losing your energy in form of ketone bodies every time you going to toilette)

Atkins Diet menu plan is loaded with fatty meats, cheese and fish. There is not too much place for fresh vegetables and some fruits (but nothing wrong with that). Atkins diet recipes are in fact recipes only for fatty meats. The biggest problem of this diet is that it doesn't have high quality animal fats, but instead, burned fats!

All of foods on Atkins Diet food list are cooked or overcooked which is very bad for us and is main reason to make some changes in this diet (overcooked fats and proteins are deadly toxic and dengerous. Atkins wasn't aware of that fact. Today we know that there are some healthy ways of food preparation).

atkins diet plan Robert Coleman Atkins, MD (October 17, 1930 in Columbus, Ohio - April 17, 2003 in New York City) was an American physician and cardiologist, best known for the Atkins Nutritional Approach (or "Atkins Diet"), a popular but controversial way of dieting that entails close control of carbohydrate consumption, emphasizing protein and fat intake, including saturated fat in addition to leaf vegetables and dietary supplements.

Because Atkins Diet force you to eat only heavy cooked meats and fats with small amount of fresh vegetables and fruits you can get in trouble. Too much of burned and oxidized fat will cause high free radicals production which in effect will make you age faster. Lack of vegetables and fruits with their anti oxidative properities will only make problem worst.

Atkins Diet foods will make you slimmer but you have to know when and how to escape from this diet or what changes you should make to this nutrition plan before damage in your body will be too big.

That is why if you like fatty meats and lots of fat and you are decided to spend some time with Atkins Diet go for professional nutrition help. The best will be holistic nutritionist who will give you honest advice and will help you with proper supplementation. Good supplementation is very important and especially with Atkins Diet.

To Be Vegetarian, or Not to Be?

This is one of hottest questions these days. Vegetarianisms is now very popular, many people strongly believe that this is good way to go. But vegetarianism is not encoded in our genes and we will never achieve optimal health and life span if our prime food will come only from plant world. Food history not lying, if there was any possibility to get meat and fat it was always first choice food.

There is no point to stop eating of meats and animal fats. Of course we should eat only free range/grass fed and organic meats if possible (better mineral and vitamin content). Red meat, game meat, poultry and fish and any other animal products are rich in minerals, vitamins, coenzymes and proteins. If you want to be healthy and live long and happy life meat should be on your plate at least two times a week.

Of course there are some vegetarians in good shape but nothing is better than red meat proteins, coenzymes and minerals. Weston Price while travelling around the world noticed that in areas where meat was quite easily available people were much healthier, bigger and stronger than in other more veggie areas. That is fact from real life, not from laboratory.


Healthy Meat

Our human evolution and food history started about 7 million years ago and through all these years we were omnivores, plant and meat eaters. In general we can say that our main food was meat (fatty and lean), fish, many greens and roots, some ripe and sour fruits (not those sweet modern fruits loaded with sugars) and insects. Seven million years of meat eating is very long time, we evolved on meat and fats!
