The Atkins Diet is a low-carb, not a no-carb plan. People frequently mistake Phase 1 of Atkins 20, for the entire Atkins plan. During Phase 1, the plan allows dieters to eat 20 grams of net carbohydrates (carbohydrates that impact one's blood sugar level, calculated by: total grams of carbs minus fiber) daily, with 12 â 15g net carbohydrates coming from a full array of colorful, nutrient-dense vegetables.
The Number of Carbs in a Low-Carb Diet. The term âlow-carb dietâ doesnât have a legal definition, which results in diverse interpretations. For example, the Atkins Diet begins at 20 to 50 grams of carbs daily in Phase I, then allows 75 to 100 grams in later phases. In 2008, the American Diabetes Association defined a low-carb diet as one that has fewer than 130 grams daily, according to a report in Nutrition and Metabolism.
