In the popular and widely used Atkins diet, the body burns fat as its
main fuel. This process produces ketosis

implies that potential tissue and vascular damage can occur on the
Atkins diet and should be considered when choosing a weight-loss
program.


Other diets don't burn fat as fuel?



Isn't the whole point behind the calories in/calories out method of weight loss supposed to be to create enough of a calorie deficit to burn body fat as fuel?
