Atkin's Diet and Constipation
I am just starting the Atkin's Diet once again after trying it a couple of years ago. With a the new headlines about researchers discovering that a high protien - low carb diet is good, I have decided to try it again. When I tried a couple of years ago, I lost 12 lbs in two weeks, but I stopped because I got very constipated. Also, I wasn't so sure that the Atkin's diet was healthy. Could someone please give me some suggestions about how to avoid constipation while on this diet? Also, I take a multivitamin everyday plus extra vitamin C. Should I be taking more vitamin supplements? Thanks.
