In a sense, the differences between Atkins and the Eades is like that between two football (or other sport) coaches. They are playing the SAME game but each has a different approach to arriving at the same end.
I'll add more late when I have time.
Got a few moments now.
I always tell people that you MUST read BOTH books, PP (1995) and PPLP (Protein Power Lifeplan - 2000) to have the full picture of the Eades plan. Many think the later book, PPLP, is easier to read. They certainly learned from writing the first and even mention that in PPLP.
Besides being written from a different approach, it also shows that they are willing to change the plan as new research comes out. Half of the 400+ references in PPLP are after the first book was published. YES, it is heavy in the science, but written in a way that most people should be able to understand. They even help with a "Bottom Line" summary of each chapter at the end. This summary is short and to the point without the reasons behind the points being made (mostly).
