    Atkins Diet leads to Depression and possibly SUICIDE (news link)

    http://www.atkins-diet.cc/Article46.phtml

    "The MIT research looked at serotonin levels in the brains of 100 volunteers who ate different diets, either with a lot of meat and other high-protein foods, or with more carbohydrates, found in breads and cereals.

    They found that the brain only made serotonin after a person ate sweet or starchy carbohydrates.

    But they said the ?kicker? was that the carbohydrates needed to be eaten in combination with very little or no protein."

      With millions of Americans on this diet, this should be investigated further

          When will Americans learn? To lose weight, eat a sensible low fat diet, take in fuwer calories than you expend, and do cardio 3-5 times a week. Fad diets will only fuck you up in the end.

                              haha thats what everyone gets

                              Often times I wonder why
                              There's love and hate, theres live or die.
                              When sickness comes I must decide:
                              When feelings go, theres suicide.

                                  You anti-atkins people are fucking worse than the jehovah's witness folks.

                                  Eat whatever the fuck you want and let me eat what I want.
                                  I was looking for a job, and then I found a job
                                  And heaven knows I'm miserable now

                                                              I'm suprised homeland security has raised the terror alert to level ORANGE with the release of this INCREDIBLE news.

                                                              Man..never have so many said so little so many times about a diet. It's fucking hilarious to read all the things that Atkins "does" to you!

                                                                              There wasn't any impact at all from that story.

                                                                              "Dr Stuart Trager, chairman of the Atkins Physician Council, said clinical research had contradicted Dr Wurtman's findings. He cited one study which found controlling carboydrate intake improved the mood of 51% of those who took part.

                                                                              He said: "We would hope that medical practitioners and those who participate in low carbohydrate lifestyles will recognize that mood, and energy levels are related to many factors, and as such reaching conclusions like this is not practical.

                                                                              "Controlling carbohydrates helps people manage their weight, improve body image and stabilizes blood sugar.

                                                                              "Additionally, it is important to remember that serotonin, the chemical these researchers are discussing is made within the body from ingested protein, rather than carbohydrates."

                                                                              Brigid McKevith, a nutrition scientist at the British Nutrition Foundation, told BBC News Online the effect of diet on serotonin was far from clear cut.

                                                                              She said: "It has been suggested that a meal high carbohydrate may lead to an increase in serotonin, but the effect is unlikely to be significant when eating a meal because as little as 2-4% of calories from protein will prevent this.

                                                                              "It is worth remembering that many foods - such as milk, beans and even potatoes - contain both carbohydrate and protein."
