Can i take liquid L Carnatine and Ginseng and Guarana for energy boost? I've been doing the atkins 4 15 days and i play soccer twice a week, i've only lost 6lbs and it goes up and done. I've also been doing weights to tone up but don't think i've been drinking enough water, could this be why?

You are correct. PCRM and PETA want to postulate a myth he had a heart attack which led to the slip and fall on the ice. There is no evidence of that.

what was dr. atkins fate? i thought he past away from an accident not from his diet?
bowulf (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
He did not have a diet related heart attack prior to his death. The only heart attack he had in his life was related to an infection in his cardiac tissue. One incident does not imply a clear history, and the only report stating that was a document released by PCRM a PETA-funded group. Again shocker of bias.
For one who does not follow PETA, you certainly follow their thinking pretty closely as it relates to the good doctor.

"slipping and falling on ice is not a consequence of any diet. "
If you believe in that rubbish, then go ahead. Dr. Atkins had a clear history of heart attacks. Perhaps he fell on ice when he had the heart attack LOL

That's my question what is healthier foods. Countless studies have shown Atkins Diet and other ketogenic diets to improve one's health - like heart, obesity, and diabetes. Atkins is filled with healthier foods like steak, cheese, broccoli, non-starchy vegetables.
Portion control of junk food is still eating junk.
Cutting corners by eliminating junk and unhealthy foods or exercise like a marathon? Do you even know what the Atkins Diet is? Watch some of my videos first and catch a clue.

No, perhaps it is more than that. Someone used to eating cheap easy fuel over and over all day long, and suddenly stopping might logically lead to some lethargy. Just because I have energy doesn't mean I am eating right. I could drink energy drinks all day long or take thermogenic diet pills, and still not be healthy.
Finally, this is a temporary condition. Still eating the same foods and same nutrients, I have ran marathons. Judging long term health by short term effects is hardly wise.

Again you are putting words in my mouth...and putting words in my mouth is like putting carbs in yours I don't like it. I never insinuated that anyone just do the same thing...Portion control, healtheir foods, exercise...what ever happened to hard work in this country. Instead it's cutting corners and miracle diets

You're missing my point. If you are just overweight and you are attempting to diet and said "diet" makes you sick/tired it is your body telling you that it is not getting essential nutrients. That is common sense. The comment about Dr. Atkins was not relevant it was just a poor joke...I apologize for that, but maybe if he had more energy he could have kept his balance.
