The site is a giant appeal to authority. On the 'Atkins Facts' page I didn't manage to find a single fact about why Atkins is bad, only a bunch of quotes saying that it is.

That's odd, because this was written right on the front page: > In fact there does not seem to be a single major governmental or nonprofit medical, nutrition, or science-based organization in the world that supports the Atkins Diet.
