Simply put, going on the Atkins diet - or "doing Atkins" - means that a person has to drastically cut down on his or her intake of carbohydrates, especially those found in starchy foods.
The low carb diet craze that is going on right now is an industry that is gaining momentum and demand every day and is showing no signs of slowing down.
Of course, when it comes to healthy eating, there are plenty of alternative diets that people want to claim are healthier than the traditional calorie counting method.
