Summary
A new Atkins Diet book called the Atkins Diabetes Revolution, indicates the famous eating plan can help with more than just weight loss. The book concludes that Type II diabetes can be prevented by following the low carb Atkins regimen. By knowing which foods contribute to the metabolic situation that results in diabetes, a person can alter his or her diet to reduce the risk for the disease, the book says.

- According to the American Diabetes Association, diabetes now affects 18.2 million people in the United States, and the Center for Disease Control has reported that 41 million Americans were pre-diabetic in year 2000.
- "The main purpose of this book is to focus people on the basic but dramatic fact that many individuals may prevent Type 2 diabetes by simply changing what they put on their plate," explains Mary Vernon, M.D., one of the co-authors of Atkins Diabetes Revolution.
- "Traditionally, Atkins is viewed as a weight loss and weight management program, but Dr. Atkins knew his nutritional approach could accomplish more for people.
- Adults and children alike who suffer from the metabolic syndrome are at higher risk to develop Type 2 diabetes and heart disease.
- Diabetes is one of the most prevalent diseases in the United States with one out of every 10 health care dollars spent on the disease and its complications.
- Atkins Diabetes Revolution published by William Morrow (an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers), introduces the concept of utilizing controlled-carbohydrate nutrition, supplementation and other lifestyle changes in conjunction with physician's counsel for the prevention and management of the metabolic syndrome, prediabetes and Type 2 diabetes.
- In addition to being a clinician and a researcher, Dr. Vernon is a member of the Atkins Physicians Council, while Ms.
- Eberstein worked with Dr. Atkins for over 25 years and is currently the director of nutrition information for Atkins Health & Medical Information Services.
- She utilizes the controlled-carbohydrate nutritional philosophy in her private practice to treat the metabolic syndrome as well as other abnormalities of blood sugar, including: hyperinsulinima, pre-diabetes and diabetes.
- The Atkins Blood Sugar Control Program (ABSCP), introduced in Atkins Diabetes Revolution, can be an effective way to prevent these conditions and a useful tool in limiting the need for medication.
