I thought you might be interested to know that the Science correspondent of one UK paper, The Guardian, although sceptical, is going on the Atkins Diet. He's going to be monitored as he does it.

The article is here.

There's a message forum about the whole thing here, at the below url, with standard low-carb knocking going on there.

Atkins has done me a lot of good so it's still frustrating to see how rabid some of those who oppose it get.

I'm surprised there wasn't more response on this thread. First a reporter that is honest, informed, open-minded and has read the book, is willing to try the Atkins WOE and to have his results scientifically monitored. Amazing!

I am not so sure I like the tone of the article but did find some interesting comments on the forum. He sounds so skeptical in his article. Will be interesting to see the tone of upcoming articles. Thanks for sharing with us.. Keep us posted on updates.
