Part-2 Dieters following Atkins diet are encouraged to stick with the fourth phase of Atkins diet for life, to remain healthy and avoid regaining weight. Included here is a list of food that you are free to consume during maintenance phase of Atkins diet and their carbohydrate content. Diet and weight loss products you have seen advertised on TV. Learn better eating habits including healthier snacks. Diets low in carbohydrate result in low glycogen stores, which leads to fatigue and decreased concentration. Weight loss ensues but at a price.
Induction is a brief, jump-start phase that triggers your body to predominantly burn fats. As you reduce carbohydrates, your body will be prompted to use fat for fuel, resulting in weight loss from this fat-burning metabolism. Induction is the first stage of the plan. It lasts 14 days (or more.) Atkins says that you can lose up to 15 pounds during this stage.
Carbohydrate, in the form of glucose, is the first fuel used to provide energy to our body. Dr Atkins suggests that when we reduce our intake of carbohydrates significantly, our body convert from burning carbohydrates to burning fat as fuel.Carbohydrates that break down quickly, such as white bread, candy and other sugary or processed foods, are considered high GI.
Carbohydrates that break down slowly, such as most fruit, vegetables, and grains, are considered low GI. Carbohydrate consumption is restricted to 20 grams per day, and must be obtained mostly from salad and other non-starchy vegetables. Bread, pasta, grains, starchy vegetables, or dairy products are all eliminated from the diet. However cheese, cream, and butter may be consumed.

Sugar from the carbohydrate quickly enters the bloodstream. To keep the blood sugar from getting too high, the body secretes insulin .[34] Sugar and alcohol are not allowed, and caffeine is discouraged. Mineral and vitamin supplementation, dietary fiber, and eight glasses of water a day are recommended
Fatigue, irritability, depression, headaches, and even many forms of joint and muscular pain simply go away. Furthermore, you should see a significant improvement in your blood profile, (including cholesterol and blood pressure levels) Fat is far more energy-rich than carbohydrates but does not break down as easily. Thus, you get plenty of energy, and it is released more slowly.
