Atkins Diet: Is Eating Out possible while on low carb?


Is eating out at restaurants possible on Atkins Diet or while low carbing? I certainly go out to eat a few times each week and can say conclusively there are a number of options for low carb’ers when eating out. The most important thing is to not be shy with servers about questions about the menu or in asking for substitutions. Here are some of my favorites: * Buffets – go to high quality, and stay away from anything breaded, sauced, or full of non-legal ingredients * Salad Bars / Deli’s …

    Iowa, the closest one is a 3 hr drive to Kansas City that I keep suggesting we do. Another great option we are missing is El Pollo Loco in this state. Their food is much healthier than the Grilled KFC chicken and tastier too, and every time we go to California where they are almost as numerous as Starbucks.

    Thanks!

    No firm reasoning, but you aren’t alone. There are at least two studies showing Atkins Diet helps GERD and acid reflux sufferers.
    “One small study, published by Dr. W.S. Yancy Jr. in the journal Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine, analyzed five case studies of GERD sufferers who chose to go on a low-carb diet. All five patients experienced resolution of their symptoms within one week. They suggested that the new diet may have affected hormones related to the acid production process”

    hey kent, I am continuing on induction. i am on day 20th. you have been a true inspiration. My question for today is: Do you have an explanation why on Atkins my acid reflux has stop? Usually, when I use to eat, I would have to wait a couple of hours to nap or go to bed, but on Atkins I can eat my dinner, and I do not have to worry about the reflux, even when I sleep on my stomach.

    Dr. A recommends L-Glutamine and Chromium Picollinate for cravings, and have a watch on my temptation and cravings video for other ways to combat them.
