I have been on Atkins for 4 years. I wholeheartedly believe that Atkins stopped my joint pain. Logically my joint pain should have worsened as I got older. The oposite happened. I was able to run ( slow jog ) in a 5K competition earlier this November.

I attempted a similar run 12 years ago and didn't even come close to attempting to run. I walked the entire distance and came in BUTT LAST.

I also believe that low carbing contributed to my ability to keep my same eye glass for the first time ever. Also, I noticed that my gray hair isn't as gray as it was back in the day. Not Kidding!!!
