Atkins 'affects conception chances'

June 28, 2004

This is why we need WAP/NT. Assuming the study is correct, NT has

pointed out that protein should never exceed 30%, no matter what type

diet or food program you are on.

It would seem the Atkins folks don't get it. They should have used this

opportunity to point out that protein intake, while varying depending on

your lifestyle needs, should rarely exceed 30%. They should have also

taken the opportunity to point out that its high fat Atkins folks should

be aiming for, not high protein.

Their critics don't get it because they continue to refer to the program

as high protein, which is really a misnomer. Unfortunately it would

appear because of the stigma saturated fat has the Atkins folks aren't

willing to challenge them.

The *New* Ten Commandments

" They told just the same,

That just because a tyrant has the might

By force of arms to murder men downright

And burn down house and home and leave all flat

They call the man a captain, just for that.

But since an outlaw with his little band

Cannot bring half such mischief on the land

Or be the cause of so much harm and grief,

He only earns the title of a thief. "

--Geoffrey Chaucer, The Manciple's Tale
