Detoxification

During induction, the first phase of the four-phase Atkins Diet, participants limit carb consumption to 20 grams per day. Once the body consumes its carb, or glycogen, reserves in about two days, it switches to metabolizing fat for fuel, according to Atkins' principles. In his book "Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution," Atkins writes that dieters can expect to lose several pounds of fat, plus some water weight, during induction. As fat breaks down, fat-soluble substances stored within might be released suddenly into the bloodstream, provoking the release of histamines if the dieter has a sensitivity to those substances. Histamine release is an allergic reaction that can result in skin swelling, such as hives -- raised, red, itchy areas of inflammation.
