Has Tony Blair Been Low-Carbing?
This is a copy of a piece that appeared in the Black Dog column of the Mail on Sunday on October 26th.
"Did the Atkins Diet cause Tony Blair's heart trouble? The PM has cut his carbohydrates by avoiding potatoes and picking the strawberries off calorific fruit pies. Mr Blair's fussy habits have prompted speculation that he is secretly following the Atkins regime, which has recently been linked to a range of health problems."
If he has been following a low-carb regime, I don't think it would be responsible for his problem last week. I can understand why he would want to keep it quiet though, especially after various government departments have been put all that negative spin on the Atkins Diet and eating low carb !!
Just goes to show, you can't trust a politician
