Question Atkins Diet

I am wondering what the current consensus of the apparent 'results' of the Atkins diet in reducing weight and cholesterol is amidst the macrobiotic community in general? Any specific links I should read? It is hard for me to believe this can, in any way, be a healthy diet. What are the risks they are taking...and what, if any, are they sufferring from as a result of all this animal intake? Any statistics coming in on these people?

Any information would be greatly appreciated as I am constantly having this put in my face and want something substantial to say other than they risk gal and kidney stones....I don't even know if this is being reported as a result of the diet...

Thank you very much!!

Teri
