Dietary programs that are designed around increasing the intake of daily fat are the exact antithesis of fat reducing diets. Among these well-known diets the most famous, and popular, fat increasing diet is the one crafted by Robert Atkins.
The Atkins diet became very popular due to a variety of reasons. The most prolific reasons tended to focus on the fact that you don’t count calories, and you eat all the meat you want. However, Atkins was not the first person to work with the idea of curing obesity using ‘fat increasing diets’. Hippocrates was the first individual known to offer this type of dietary advice.
The diet is based on the fact that when carbohydrate intake is abruptly reduced, the human body will enter into a state known as lipoclasis. This active state involves splitting fat in order to provide energy for the body. Despite being known as fat based diets, these weight loss and health programs require large protein consumption to work properly. However, this protein must be consumed in such a way that the intake of carbohydrates are greatly reduced. Robert Atkins has been noted to say that the average individual can lose up to 6.5 kilo (14.5 pounds) per month on his diet.
I hope you did not immediately feel overly elated and unnecessarily optimistic about Atkins diet. Diets that involve the fat intake increasing principle can lead to metabolic disorders if they are not done under a doctors supervision. Only truly healthy people should undertake these sorts of diets and regular physical examinations are a must!
Some of the known side-effects of the Atkins diet are the rapid onset of exhaustion, a loss of energy and decreased work capacity, dizziness, and chronic dehydration.
An interesting fact that some people are not aware of is that Atkins himself died of a cerebral hemorrhage at the age of 72. He also suffered from obesity and his weight was at an abundant 116 kilo (257 pounds) at the time.
“you don’t count calories, and you eat all the meat you want.” It’s fairly clear that the author of this article has not, in fact, researched the Atkins diet. There is a calorie LIMIT of 1,400 a day and you have to exercise at least half an hour every day. Good luck eating all the meat you want with 1,400 calories to work with.
