Need ot know if the Atkins Advantage Breakfast bars and shakes are Induction Friendly

[edesros168]

Hey all, Well after about 2 years I am back on this great way of life. I was a pretty big success the first time losing about 50 pounds. But since then I fell back into my old ways and was the junk food junkie that I love to be and gained it back. So as of yesterday I am a carb free man again. Just needed to know about the Advantage Breakfast bars, shakesand if they were induction friendly. The shakes look ok as they are only like 4G total of carbs. The bars have like 15G in them total. What do ya'll think?

NOPE!

check out the ingredients, lots of those things shouldnt be had until the higher rungs of OWL...

though i believe they all say on them that they are okay for induction they are not, they are a well known staller!

Atkins nutritionals created them after Dr A had died, just a money making scheme! stay away from them!

Emma is right - as far as I have been able to find out NONE of the 'safe for induction' bars only have ingredients that are allowed for induction, so steer clear of them till you are at the level/rung of OWL thast does allow them all.

I know Dr Atkins did say he 'stood by' the Atkins bars but apparently the bars now contain different ingredients than they did in the past - and he did say several times in DANDR 'Eat nothing that is not on the allowed foods list'.

As for the shakes, Atkins is NOT a high protein way of eating but a hig fat/medium protein/low fat WOE and the shakes are virtually all protein unless you add lots of fat to them.
