Atkin Induction Food List

The Atkins Induction Diet

Atkins Food

There are several phases of the Atkins diet and induction is the first. If you don't get induction right, the rest of the diet simply won't work, so you have to make sure that you are following the induction diet religiously.

The Atkins Diet works by cutting out carbohydrates and replacing them with high protein foods. By making this change you can burn fat instead of carbohydrates. Induction is the hardest part of the Atkins Diet, but you will have to adhere to the approved Atkins induction menu if you want to succeed.

Better to be safe than sorry so remove the foods that are not allowed on induction.

All fish including: flounder, herring, salmon, sardines, sole, trout and tuna

All fowl including: chicken, Cornish hen, duck, goose, quail, pheasant and turkey

All shellfish including clams, crab, mussels, oysters, shrimp and squid

All meat including: bacon, beef, ham, lamb, pork, veal and venison

All eggs prepared anyway you like.

You should eat 12-15 net carbohydrates a day comprised of vegetables. Buy a carb counting book so that you know the counts on everything and take it with you during induction. Make a list of the proteins that you can eat and carry it with you. For a complete list of foods that you are allowed to eat during the induction phase, I recommend buying a copy of the Atkins Diet or going to site below for a more comprehensive list.

People who do well on the Atkins diet get their families on board because it makes it easier to stick with. Always consult a physician before embarking on any diet.
