The Atkins Diet (2003) Documentary on Free Online Video

Whether you think he's a hero or scientific heretic, Dr. Robert Atkins' high protein, eat-what-you-want diet has led many people to a smaller waistline. In this documentary provided by the BBC's Horizons, a series of experiments are conducted to help determine the truth behind this popular, yet controversial diet. After being discredited for many decades, the Atkins diet found fresh popularity when a new generation of scientists found (to their surprise) that people eating more protein and fat where healthier than those that were eating leaner food with less calories. But the question remained: where does all that food energy in the form of calories go? Horizon's investigation breaks down why the Atkins diet works, yet it remains to be seen how healthy it is in the long term.
