Atkins died obese and with heart disease

for your information, very amusing

Well, what I think is funny is how Atkins family was hiding Dr Atkins condition. See another thread in alt.support.diet.low-carb about that.
The fact that no one disputes is that Atkins died being very overweight and having a heart disease.


A typical cause of it is, well, obesity, adiposity, high cholesterol, etc.

His family, having much money at stake, is now claiming that his
"bloating" and hypertension and heart problems were caused by some unusual problem such as some virus.

That same family is engaging in fraudulent behavior in other areas, such as selling fake zero carb junk food bars.

The burden of proof is really on them if they want me to believe an unusual cause over a more typical cause. I am sure that if they are telling the truth, they would have no problems finding authentic medical documents with his contemporary diagnoses, as well as publishing the autopsy results.

I heard that range referred to as "healthy".

You think that people who are obese are funny? I think that it's ironic

No, it's not. Ignorant, is his haste to put down something he doesn't like (or that doesn't agree with him) is now rooting for PETA! I always knew he was a nutjob.

The liars are the left are at it again. Read this:

Excerpt:

"The late Dr. Robert Atkins is being smeared for his alleged obesity at the time of his death, by a phony doctors organiz- ation that has been exposed as a front group for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) and has been censured by the American Medical Association (AMA)."

I'm so sick of those nutcase wacko bunny-huggers.
