  Please, if you have little knowledge on the subject matter, do not comment on it. Also do well to check your spellings: protein, obesity, diseases, eggs, fruits are all wrongly spelt. Your grammar is equally terrible.

  All of these results involve meats that are corn fed. I never have seen a result on 100% grass fed beef, free range chicken, pastured pork, 100% grass fed lamb and goat, also line caught fresh and salt water fish. Do you have these test results? If you do not have these results your facts are not complete. You are giving results on animals that eat corn, a very unhealthy and unnatural diet for any animal.

  Protein gets used up right away.
  Carbs get stored and are great if you need to quickly run from a dinosaur.
  If not then they just keep on storing.

  The Entire platform for this article is the term LONG TERM n Dr Adkins never suggests you do it long term. You simply reduce cards to gain target weight, then slowly add carbs until you start to gain again. Then you know exactly what your bodies tolerance is for carbs., Never assums it is a lifetime thing. I lost 78 pouinds in 6 months with adkins. The diet industry is attacking it because you do not need a program nor prepackaged meals.

  There are so many issues with this article. First and foremost, low-carbohydrate is a lifestyle change, not a diet. Second, Atkins and other LC diets are high FAT, moderate protein. This is an important distinction and shows the lack of research the individual writing this performed.
  
  Second referring to weight loss. The first week, only water weight is lost. This is during the keto-adaptation phase. Once ketosis is reached however, insulin is restricted. This allows for the release of stored fat into component fatty acids for fuel. This is what actually burns fat. It is a well known and well-researched metabolic process. To say LC achieves weight loss only by losing water is not only disingenuous, but it is also blatantly false and ignorant.
  
  Thirdly, headaches, tiredness and other symptoms may occur ONLY during keto-adaptation (approximately a week), however most effects can be countered by increase in liquids and salt. This adaptation period - think of it as a sugar detox. Most addicts will experience withdrawal symptoms.
  
  Two problems with your heart attack theory: 1)Fat has not been linked with increasing cholesterol and 2)Higher cholesterol has not been proven to increase CVD risk. Two failed hypotheses.
  
  Essentially everything in this article is simply scripted governmental nutritional advice that is poor hypothesis at best. Congratulations on creating one of the worst articles in existence!
