Low carb diet can cause serious problems
Low carbohydrate diets for weight management are far from healthy, given their association with ketosis, constipation or diarrhoea, halitosis, headache, and general fatigue to name a few side-effects.

Controversial benefits of Atkins diet
During the first two weeks on this diet your weight loss can be precipitous, since much of it is water. In addition, your body will burn its own fat.

This condition, called ketosis, makes dieting easier, because it often depresses appetite and may cause nausea. More →
Controversy About Atkins's Health
Most low-carbohydrate diets do not attempt to limit the intake of proteins, fats, or total calories. In other words, their fat content tends to be very high.

Lack of protein can cause growth failure, loss of muscle mass, decreased immunity, weakening of the heart and respiratory system, and death. More →

How Hoodia Balance Works
In 1937, a Dutch anthropologist studying the San Bushmen noted that they used hoodia to suppress appetite. But it wasn't until 1963 when scientists at the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), South Africa's national laboratory, began studying hoodia.

After getting a patent in 1995, they licensed p57 to Phytopharm. More →
