TSP vs Adkins are essentially the same with the difference being the nature of the foods eaten. TSP provides more information as to the safer Fats to cook and eat . AD does not get that deep into the nature of the endocrine system as TSP does. The chemical results of both diets are the same.
It was stated that TSP permits 15- 30 carbs.
AD permits 20 carbs after 2-3 day induction , no real difference.
Adkins states to increase the carbs 5 grams in increments till the CCL (critical CArb Level) is reached then back of some.
TSP breaks you insulin resistance into 4 categories AD does not.
None the less they are targeting the same results.
I have used the AD diet in the 70's during my body building days and it lead me to great results.
TSP on the other hand offers a more intelligable approach to the nature of WHY specific fats are appropriate.
TSP is for those wishing better health through better use of fat in ones diet.
The difficulty in losing weight is the Physical Exercise ( I would get dark purple in the Ketones) if I did even light weight training or only 15 minutes a day.
It does and has always worked well for me.
If you have resistance try a little weight Resistance exercise and the results are remarkable.
BOdybuilders have used this dietary approach pre contest and it alwasy works
SO keep reading and learning. Your life depends on it.
Good fortune to you all.
