Fad Diets are my pet peeve. I hate them!!! But, I don't believe in dieting anyway. I believe we all need to learn healthy lifestyles. The idea that it is healthy to completly eliminate a food group is off.
Fad diets prey on people who are looking for an easy way out- a quick fix.
The thing with Atkins and heart disease is two-fold. First, the diet- the way most people do it- is murder on your arteries. I mean hamburgers for breakfast? Come on.
But second, many people who try these fad diets are already to a point that their weight has seriously compromised their vascular system. So, it's doubly dangerous.
