Atkins Diet Diabetes - ‘The Diabetes Epidemic Can Be Stopped!’
Thursday, November 3 2005 at 10:53
“I think it is possible to end the diabetes epidemic,” says Veronica Atkins. She is not kidding.
Atkins, the widow of Robert C. Atkins, MD, has done a lot for people with diabetes over the past two years. Through the Robert C. Atkins Foundation, she has provided more than $12 million to scientific and clinical researchers studying metabolism and nutrition. She believes that type 2 diabetes and its complications can be eradicated, and to that end she has funded 38 different nutrition studies at academic institutions like Washington University, Duke University and Albert Einstein College of Medicine. She is confident that these studies will show that following a controlled low-carb diet can reverse type 2 diabetes and combat obesity.
