Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

"Diet food can be better, richer, and more sumptuous than most everyday foods", says Dr Robert Atkins, author of the massive best-seller, Dr Atkins' New Diet Revolution. Carbohydrates, in his opinion, are the root of metabolic evil and the source of hyperinsulinemia, a condition that makes it next to impossible to lose weight. Billed as a companion to the New Diet Revolution, this collection of recipes focuses on ultralow-carbohydrate dishes. His anticarb stance leads to some unconventional dietary advice: "Remember that, as a rule, the lower the fat content of a milk product, the higher its carbohydrate grams. Use cream, not skim milk; use sour cream, not yogurt."

While these recipes are certainly quick and easy to prepare and feature easy-to-find ingredients, some are very high in fat (Zabaglione, Crab and Avocado Salad, Ham and Cheese Sandwiches, Baked Eggs in Bacon Rings). While it may be true that fat is flavour and is necessary to some extent to keeping blood sugar on an even keel, these recipes won't be helpful for those who are watching their cholesterol or are on similarly restricted diets. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

2.0 out of 5 stars There are much better low -carb cookbooks available, 5 Mar 2003
By L. Day "Bookworm" (Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This isn't a bad diet cookbook but it's a lousy cookbook if you remove the qualifier of 'diet' cookbook.
It's American in the extreme and I could create much better low-carb recipes by just slightly adjusting my normal cooking. With the re-iterance of the rules of Atkins taking up three chapters at the beginning and pitifully few creative recipes (many of which depends on special products which would have to be ordered on-line) it smacks somewhat of 'let's sell yet another Atkins book to the low-carbing public'
If you're looking for a good value low-carb cookbook then in complete contrast I would recommend Fran McCullough's low-carb cookbook. This is a genuinely good cookery book. She's a food editor and it shows - her's is a book that contains recipes you would choose to use even if you were not on a low-carb program! I very strongly recommend her book instead of this one. It contains truly useful diet tips like what to eat if you are craving a certain type of food i.e. crunchy, salty, sweet or mashed potato and she gives dinner party and special occasion recipes that friends would never know were low-carb.

2.0 out of 5 stars Save your money..., 2 April 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Dr. Atkins' Quick and Easy New Diet Cookbook (Paperback)
The Atkins Diet is great and this follow-up recipe book is OK....my only complaint is that this book, as the orange book did before it, assumes foods like lobster, crab and swordfish are within the reach of your average dieter...admittedly the Cookbook is a bit more down to earth than the orange book, but is still aimed at the American market (and therefore all the measurements are in 'cups') meaning that it's not so ideal for UK dieters who will find it hard to get hold of some of the ingredients without blowing the week's housekeeping on one meal. There are some great low-carb websites out there with squillions of free recipes - my advice would be to save your money and search the Net first and if you can't still find what you're looking for, THEN buy the book :)

5.0 out of 5 stars It works and you'll feel good, 14 Dec 2003
By A Customer
Atkins gets a lot of bad press, but when all is said and done his diet really works, and it works really fast. Atkins explains why he thinks it works, and his theory sounds plausable. But who cares, it works.

I suffered from a lot of stress, or hypertension before this diet. That has all gone, I no longer get sugar cravings, (i.e. shivering for no reason), mood swings, sudden hunger or faintness. And I got all this when I was not on a diet.

Now that I am doing Atkins (not all that strictly), I feel fantastic. Do not believe the bad press this book gets. This guy gets screwed because of his induction phase. But even he admits that induction is not healthy for long term, and he does not recommend this as a lifetime change, just a short kick start to a fat burning mechamnism.

I almost forgot to mention, I did get this book to lose weight, and I did. Its just that the other benefits I got seem to far outweigh the actual weight loss.

Don't be tempted to get info on Atkins from the Internet, there is enough rubbish on this guy out there. Read from the source.

Get this book if you want to diet, get this book if you do not feel 100% and you suspect diet (I mean an eating plan) could help.
