Depending on the foods chosen by the dieter, the diet may contain a large amount of saturated fat and cholesterol, putting those at risk for heart disease in danger. Recent research has found that high-protein diets speed up the progression of hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis), the main cause of heart attacks. Moreover, contrary to Atkins? claims, extremely low-fat diets have been found to partially reverse heart disease.
I don't think the guy's a quack, but he may have been trying too hard.

This is going to take some research. I don't want to kill myself by skipping toast.
