Are you finding it difficult to lose weight? If yes, you need to try out the Atkins diet. The Atkins diet was promoted by Robert Atkins, who was so impressed by a research paper, titled "Weight Reduction" he read in the Journal of American Medical Association, that he decided to try it out on himself. It worked in helping him reduce his weight and he decided to introduce it to other people as well. He wrote a number of books to popularize this method of losing weight, including Dr. Atkins' Diet Revolution (1972), Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution (2002) and The New Atkins for a New You (2010). His latest book The New Atkins for a New You included what had been learnt in the last decade and also included a number of nutrient-rich foods that dieters could try out. The Atkins Diet has been criticized and applauded at the same time. But the fact that it has survived for over 30 years shows that it does work and it has helped many people lose weight as well as maintain their ideal weight.
