whole food plant based food ( complex carbohydrate and low animal fat <10% ) that are usually seen in traditional asian diet (eg : Japanese ) .
Atkin may present a major dietary improvement for those heavy junk food/processed food (refined carbohydrate) eater, but i really doubt you would see the "same heart disease risk" by comparing to those who eat a predominantly
whole food plant based diet as recommended by the author of the China study .
