I would say No. I can only tell you from personal experience. I remember when the Atkins diet was all the rage and everyone that couldn't loose weight wanted to try it. It did help some people, but I wasn't able to do the diet because of the kidney problem I have. The diet puts too much protein in your blood. You have to use good judgment when trying new things. A good rule of thumb: always check things out and find out what your alternatives are.
