Atkins Diet 101

January 26, 2010

After trying every diet pill and all kinds of exercises that you can find to help you lose weight, you still haven’t reached your ideal body state. You are not losing hope though that is why you are now focused to go on a diet. To make sure that you will be guided in the process, you have selected one of the most popular diet schemes these days, which is the Atkins diet. This was developed by Dr. Robert Atkins who believed that obesity is caused mainly by carbohydrates. With this in mind, he created this diet plan that will require a person to limit or keep their carbohydrate intake into a minimum.

You must make sure that you follow exactly what is being asked from you, especially during the induction phase. This is the most restrictive point of the Atkins Nutritional Approach and this usually lasts for two weeks. You are only allowed 20 net grams of carbohydrates per day or even less if you can handle such. Here are some samples of food list that you can take when you are at this phase of the diet plan.

You can indulge on certain protein foods like seafood, eggs and meat, which do not contain carbohydrate or might contain only a few. You can eat lots of cold water fish at this phase and foods that have Omega-3 fatty acids. In choosing oils, you must greatly consider olive oil, grape-seed, and peanut and canola oil. If you have to use mayonnaise, the regular full-fat type is recommended and make sure that the ingredient contains the preferred oils that you are allowed to take. It is ideal that you drink eight glasses of water every day. If you have the urge to eat while it is still not time for your regular meal, you must try drinking water to check if you are indeed hungry o you are merely thirsty.
