摘要：The Atkins diet is a low-carbohydrate and high-protein diet created by Robert C. Atkins. The diet works when the body changes into state of ketosis because of drastically restricting of carbohydrate intake, which means it burns its own fat to convert into energy. The objective of the study is to determine the effectiveness of Atkins diet by measuring the weight before and after practicing the diet. The method used was a cross-sectional study. The finding showed that there was statistically significant difference between weights before and weight after. Thus, low-carbohydrate and high-protein and fat diet (Atkins diet) was effective.
