I just heard a news story that Dr. Atkins died of
heart problems due to being overweight.  They say
he was about 280 when he died.  So Dr. Atkins
couldn't keep on his own diet?  Ironic.
I've been waiting for this.... Dr. Atkins died of hitting his head falling on 
an icy sidewalk. His heart condition, which partially inspired him to develop 
his diet, was the result of a virus infection.

When he died, he had been in hospital for some time (unconscious BTW) and had 
been retaining water, almost all the additional weight was in fact retained 
water.

Just setting the record straight.
