A member asked:
Had constipation and that pressure to go 24/7 and i was on a all meat diet the (atkins) diet could that have made me like this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: The atkins diet is not a balanced diet. You left out all the fiber the intestine uses for effective motility of the stool. You can still eat some vegetables with this diet and lose weight.
