The only part about the article that bothered me was Gary Taubes comments:

Quote:
The fact that Atkins himself has had heart trouble recently does not ease my anxiety, despite his assurance that it is not diet-related.


To me, it almost seemed to discredit the rest of the article. Taubes could have at least mentioned that Atkin's cardiomyopathy was caused by a bacterial infection.

However, I admit that great strides were made and maybe Atkins didn't want to sweat the small stuff.
