I just gave my opinion instead of asking straight out why someone would post they hate the Atkins diet in the Atkins Diet Forum . It's usually vegans looking for a fight about meat anyway. I know a lot about the Atkins diet, more than a lot of people on the diet themselves.

Ignorance. Hm. Then why did my cholesterol go way up after being on the diet? Is reading the book and trying the diet for two years enough? How does one become properly schooled, then? Why do my nurse friends tell me that many of their patients with renal failure are on the low carb diet? Anyway, to each his own, but name calling is pretty pathetic when someone has an opinion that differs from your own. I was attacked so vigorously for posting here my experiences on the diet that I felt I had to delete the post. In other forums people are free to have an opinion or exprerience that doesn't support the forum, and it's called DISCUSSION.

If carnivours get sick or die when raw meat is kept from them , this would be considered cruelty to animals ! If an Oranutang was made to eat a diet that was all meat that would be considered cruely to animals! When an omnivour tries to eat like an omnivore some how through some consensis driven campagne, that it has become cruelty to animals! Its non sensical!It shows the power of propaganda! When a big cat takes down a Gazelle is that cruelty to animals or is that nature as it was designed! There seems to be this idea interjected into our culture that man was not meant to eat meat as strange as that sounds to me! Yet man does eat meat and does not get ill like an orangutang eating meat or a big cat gets ill from eating vegan! And I have no problem with someone wanting to be a vegan etal. but this proposition that somehow that is natural and the omnivore is not is a seed planted with oblique intentions! Somehow all of mans evolutionary history revolved around being omniforous and a meat eater yet through purposeful consensis driven promotions nature and its tenets are being twisted ! For what purpose I wonder? Is pita going to target the Sahara to campagne and drive consensis to stop the big cats from their politically incorrect carniverous ways also! Or is there no need to devide the big cats against one another!
