Their top issues include:

- Anti-atkins. Apparently, the life of a cow is more important than improved quality of life for millions of morbidly obese people.
- Anti "cancer causing" foods (and a picture of red meat is shown). They claim meat consumption has been "proven" to cause cancer. Funny, I bet they have nothing bad to say about soy, or tofu right?
- Anti-dissection and anti-dog labs. What does the (quality of) life of an animal have to do with human health?

I wouldnt worry too much about atkinsdietalert. Seems like it is just a public friendly front for extremist veganism.
