I agree with Tofi. It sounds like PR crap to me. It even says in the article that they're changing their tune because:
"we want physicians to feel comfortable with this diet, and we want people who are going to their physicians with this diet to feel comfortable."

I have a strong suspicion this would not have happened if Dr. Atkins was still alive. This is really sad because it adds fuel to the fire of criticism that has haunted Atkins in recent years.

I'm not changing the way I'm eating because of this. This is working for me! Anybody else?
