Hello.... I am wondering if anyone has used any of the supplements Dr. Atkins reccomends? Have any made a difference? I am taking chromium and L - carnitine and omega 3 EFA as reccomended in the book.
Thanks

I take Atkins 3 Basic vitamins. I notice that taking a multi vitamin specifically designed to boost the low - carb lifestyle makes a HUMONGOUS difference!! It balances your nutrition instead of letting you get too many of one vitamin & not enough of others...

I ordered it from amazon. com a while back. I haven ' t found any lately though, but I have found some other low - carb vitamins out there that I plan on getting once I run out of my current supply. I haven ' t been to a GNC in years so not sure if they carry them there. I can ' t even find them on the Atkins website so not even sure if they make them any longer...

I am wondering why the atkins www site doesn ' t sell his nutritionals. I DO see them at web sites but I wonder if Atkins still makes them. I got mine from the local * * * * * *, but they are separate supplements and not an ' all in one '. The Carnitine is very expensive... seems like it should be something helpful tho. I am very prone to the ' placebo effect '; if it is SUPPOSED to help me, I usually think it did! ( glass is half full for me, always! )
Thanks
