And now, laughing from the great beyond with a hearty, "I told you so", Dr. Robert Atkins.

At age 72, a day after a major snowstorm in New York, Atkins slipped on an icy pavement, suffering severe head trauma. He spent nine days in intensive care before dying from complications from his head injury. NOT HIS DIET.

God bless Dr. Atkins. He saved my life. Other authors, doctors, and experts have taken up his clarion call.

The Center for “Science” in the Public “Interest” have successfully de-fatted a lot of foods, which has caused the obesity and diabetes epidemics in our country.
Things like canned meats and fish are so bone-dry and cardboardy that I can’t even get my cats to eat them.

And (I’m convinced) it was all to enhance their profits from their participation in the “weight loss” industry.

But remember, “It’s Better With Butter!”

And I agree that it was a stinking lie to bandy about that Dr. Atkins’s death was from his diet.

Another lie they told was that he died very fat. No, he had edema from the drugs with which they were treating his severe head injury.

I was a member of the Atkins Diet forum at the time, and we got the truth from the Atkins Co. people about that tragedy.

If Dr Adkins had been administered DMSO arterially to get it into his seriously damaged brain, he might have lived. DMSO is a life saver.

Thank you for pointing that out.

I have used his lifestyle diet over the years, and more strictly when I need to lose a few pounds, it works, but it gets a bad name by those who abuse food and over indulge on meats etc, even on a diet that works.
