I’ve been giving this a lot of thought and watching all the people who are cheering over the Atkins Nutritionals Bankruptcy.<\/p>\n
One thing that people aren’t getting, is that the Atkins diet ISN’T Atkin Nutritionals. It’s the products with an “A” on them. Yes, the books are probably also a product of the company. But the biggest problem was the food. It really didn’t taste very good, I know I’ve tried it. Lots of companies who are good at making good tasting food have managed to come out with lower carb food and I think that’s why Atkins Nutritional is in trouble.<\/p>\n
Plus they had a hard time getting shelf space. For example, Kraft is making South Beach diet stuff. The Kraft brand already owns shelf space in almost every grocery store — they can just tell the grocers to change their shelf space. Also, South Beach Diet foods are MUCH better tasting.<\/p>\n
What really gets me, is that are a few Bernstein advocates cheering the Atkins demise and that REALLY doesn’t make sense. The difference between Bernstein and Atkins is that Bernstein limits ALL food components, not just carbs. Bernstein just limits carbs a lot more.<\/p>\n
I know a lot of non-diabetics who have lost weight and kept it off with Atkins. I have personally tried Atkins. I don’t lose weight if I do Atkins, but I don’t gain it either.<\/p>\n
In fact, the only way I do lose weight is if I count carbs AND calories AND exercise. And it is REAL slow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
