The guy who wrote The Zone, said that is is good for losing weight but will destroy your heart. Dr Atkins is dead from a heart attack. He had an accident before he died, but a year before that he had heart failure and that was before his accident. Also he always looked fat or heavy from his pictures.

But I bet if someone eats tons of carbs from only raw foods, they will never be fat. There are good carbs and bad carbs.

Carbs are fuel. If you put bad fuel in your car, it can ruin your engine. Some carbs burn cleaner than other carbs. The carbs in grapefruit are different than the carbs in cake. Right? See Losing Weight below for more on this.
