Leg cramping is a common side effect of the Atkins diet. Photo Credit Hemera Technologies/AbleStock.com/Getty Images. The Atkins diet is a type of low=carbohydrate diet. Because of the restriction of carbohydrate intake, your body might begin to experience cramping in the extremities, such as the legs.
