Accusation #1: AtkinsFacts.org Ignores "the overwhelming weight of the evidence"
There is, in fact, an overwhelming weight of evidence, but it points to the opposite of what you're claiming. AtkinsFacts.org is hardly alone in condemning the Atkins Diet out of fear for the public's health. The American Cancer Society, the American Heart Association, the American Dietetic Association and the American Medical Association all have publicly come out against Atkins-like diets and warned of serious potential health risks. Literally dozens of medical and nutritional authorities have attempted to educate the public about the very real dangers associated with diets like yours. Their position statements are reprinted in full in our Expert Opinions section of the website.
