I would love to see some thinking outside the box, not just the things that have been posted before defending the Atkins diet.

I do think there are people that have different metabolisms and metabolic profiles so that they will respond better to different macronutrient ratios.

I have concerns that just as the low fat diets have resulted in quite a number of health issues for people (I would say it has contributed to obesity in some cases), similar health issues will arise by eliminating another food group, carbs.

I assert not all carbs are created equally, and that some are essential in the body for optimum health.
