The Atkins’ Diet
First invented by doctor atkins in the sixities, the atkins diet is still one of the most popular diets today. Although highly controversial, it allows weight loss whilst allowing you to eat many foods that would not be part of a normal diet, eg beef and some dairy produce.
With the atkins diet it is considered good to eat fat and protein, avoiding carbohydrates almost completely. Because of this, it is known as a low carbohydrate/high protein, diet system.
With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including, but not limited to, cereals and pasta made from white flour.
Unlike other diets, on the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat continues to be nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and olive oil.

The Atkins’ Diet Theory
The theory of the atkins diet is that if we consume fewer carbs, our bodies will consume the fat we already carry and we will lose weight
