With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, amongst them, cereals and pasta made from white flour.
On the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish & poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and olive oil.

If we eat less carbs, our bodies will utilize the fat we already carry and we will diet successfully. Although tempting, the atkins diet is divisive, not all medical experts are in agreement and a good number of allege that it might be unsafe.
