Dr Atkins' diet is extremely low in carbohydrates,
which helps to regulate insulin production and decrease circulating
insulin; less insulin soon results in less fat storage and fewer food
cravings. The diet is far from torturous, though--those who've tried
it attest that hunger is not a part of this plan. Ninety percent of
Dr. Atkins' patients--more than 25,000 of them--have experienced dramatic
weight loss.
