From latest issue of NewsWeek: Going Beyond Atkins. “There’s no question that carbs can make you fat. But are bunless burgers the best alternative? Here’s a healthier, and tastier, way to cut carbs”. Says “many experts now believe that Atkins was at least half right in condemning carbohydrates” — but that the real key is to eat foods with a low glycemic load (good carbs) and shun those with a higher glycemic load (bad carbs).
(The article also points out that Atkins theory is just a revival of William Banting’s “Letter on Corpulence, Addressed to the Public,” published in London in 1863.)
