Whaddaya Say Atkins ?











The famous Atkins diet have been tingling around up until now but some of us have a really small knowledge what is the truth about Atkins, some of us also believed that Atkins is like eating steak and eggs ONLY !? While you're in the Atkins phase you tend to take everything's protein and fats and never look into your carbohydrate intake without realizing the high or low fats intake of what you eat.

The equation is simple for Atkins
Protein + Fats - Carbohydrate = Atkins Diet


People who have been in Atkins usually fill up their plates with meat, cheese, high fat meat, mayonnaise and etc (protein and fats). The more the merrier!


The theory behind the high intake of protein and fats is because both of this tend to makes you "full", so you will not feel that hungry and will not take more caloric intake and then you will be able to see the changes in your body. This is also due to you not taking any carbohydrate, you will have a greater chance to stay in the 'fat-burning mode'.
*if the intake of carbohydrate is really high it will cause the raise up of insulin level in your body, thus causing the fat burning mode to slow down*



BUT ! Do bear in mind that your protein and fats intake must be in controlled amount. Some issues aroused when it comes to Atkins like high blood pressure, heart disease and heart attack and this is because you are not monitoring your protein and fats intake which may be what are you taking are all saturated fats thus ruining your diet and also your body.
