Collection: Atkins Diet
What is the Atkins Diet? The diet is based on the theory that overweight people eat too many carbohydrates. Our bodies burn both fat and carbohydrates for energy, but carbohydrates are used first. By drastically reducing carbohydrates and eating more protein and fat, our bodies naturally lose weight by burning stored body fat more efficiently.
Benefits of the Atkins Diet
How the Atkins Diet Works? In slightly more detail, consider what happens when you eat a high carbohydrate meal. Sugar from the carbohydrate quickly enters the bloodstream. To keep the blood sugar from rising too high, the body secretes insulin. Insulin allows the extra sugar to be stored in the liver and muscle as glycogen, but these stores are rapidly filled to capacity. The insulin then converts any extra sugar to fat, the stuff we're trying so hard to get rid of. According to the Atkins theory, if the body keeps on making "too much" insulin as it tries to deal with the "excess" sugar it may become less responsive to insulin and eventually may develop the metabolic disorder diabetes. The Atkins theory states that this should properly be called "unstable blood sugar" since the blood sugar level rises and then drops quickly.
