Bias

This article is obviously biased. Undefinable perjorative terms such as "fad diet" are a dead giveaway. The point of view is utterly one-sided. The author has an agenda in which fairness plays no part. 2605:A601:AA25:2100:E058:87FB:10D4:BC66 (talk) 13:42, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Protein Power is a well known fad diet and that is supported by many reliable references. If you read some of the standard large nutritional textbooks they always have a section on "Fad diets" and the Atkins diet and Protein Power are nearly always listed as an example.

Sorry - but fads don't last decades. High protein low carb diets are supported by an increasing number of MDs that see the results. The citations about kidney damage have been debunked many years ago. Low carb diets appear to be an effective way to deal with the type II diabetic pandemic that WHO says kills 1.6M every year. Using pejorative terms in an attempt to cancel diversity of opinion is not going to advance the world - the medical community is divided on low-carb diets - pretending it is settled science hurts humanity.
