by Carol J Bartram We all need to exercise on a regular basis, especially as we get older. If you don’t, your muscles will waste as part of the typical ageing process, your metabolism will require fewer calories to function, and even if you eat no more than you ever did, you will start putting on the pounds. This increase in weight is slow but sure. At first it’s just couple of pounds here and there, hardly noticeable. The weight you put on after Christmas just doesn’t seem to come off like it used to.

by Cathy Maree The short name for the Atkins nutritional approach is the Atkins diet. Dr. Robert Atkins invented this low-carb diet. He had gained a great deal of weight while he attended medical school. Atkins read about a low-carb diet in one of his medical journals. He perfected it and released it to the public. Dr. Atkins had rather radical theories about the nature of weight gain as expressed in the Atkins diet. He held that saturated fats weren’t as bad as people claim.
