Atkins Diet Products - Atkins Nutritionals Out of Bankruptcy

Friday, February 10 2006 at 13:00

Atkins Nutritionals has emerged from bankruptcy with a revised business model that hinges less on the popularity of the low-carb diet espoused by its founder.

The company said it isn't abandoning the legacy of the late diet guru Dr. Robert C. Atkins, who taught that people should eat foods rich in protein and limit their intake of carbohydrates.

But with the anti-carb craze waning, the company is no longer publishing books about the Atkins diet and has jettisoned almost all of a once-broad product line that included low-carb bread, bagels, pasta, cookies and cheesecake.
