Finally, the funding for this study was provided by The Atkins Center for Complementary Medicine. Slightly suspicious, bearing in mind that the diet utilized in the study corresponds with diet recommendations endorsed by Dr. Richard Atkins.

Dr Richard Atkins? Who's he? If you don't know that the good doctor's name was Robert Atkins, it makes me wonder a little about the accuracy of the rest of your critique...

The only other point I'll bother to address is that Dr Atkins was criticized for years for not conducting any research. So of course, when the Atkins Center did fund some research, they were roundly criticized for that too.

Have you read any other research about low carbing? I suggest you start at "Low Carb Studies" on the orange bar at the top of the screen.
