About / History

In 1972, Dr Robert Atkins (1930-2003) generated much controversy in the scientific world by claiming the answer to weight loss was a low carbohydrate diet. Revised versions were published in 1992 and 2002. Food products are available as well as a series of books (cookbooks, shopping guides, carb-counters).
