ATKINS Diet.

Dr Atkins was really on to something here. To bad he died and could not perfect it. The concept makes alot of sense. Atkin had to do with fluctuatios in blood sugar in our body. Known as the ” glycemic Index”. when we eat high carb foods our pancreas secrets insulin so our body can turn these carbs into energy.

The Premise was that dont eat carbs and our bodies won’t have spikes in blood sugars.

Well we all know our bodies need carbs to function correctly.But the trick is, eat good carbs only

Such as:

Veggies, whole grain breads, sweet potatos and yams, brown rices, whole grain and brown rice pastas, good oils such as olive oil and fresh fruits.

Avoid totally:

concentrated sugars, foods or drink with added sugars, white sugar, white flour, white breads, whilt rice and white potatos.

Of course we must add:

moderate excercise, and watch the calories
