That Americans are some of the heaviest people in the world speaks to this intense response toward weight loss, a quest for many that has found its mainstay in the ever-popular Atkins program. The success of this high protein, low carbohydrate diet is, indeed, founded in the validity of scientific research, however, it is also based in great part upon the tremendous word-of-mouth influence passed on by those who have realized tremendous personal success on the program. From celebrity endorsements to common man testimonials, eating the low-carb way has truly become one of the most powerful phenomenons of the twenty-first century and is anticipated to generate a total of thirty billion dollars in 2004 alone. Bibliography lists 15 sources.
