    Citric Acid

    MEant to add.... no idea why atkins diet would suggest this as it seems to contradict other vlcds.... Unless my scientific knowledge is dated. lol
  39. baby_callalillies

    Citric Acid

    Citric acid is used in the metabolic system to produce energy. I guess by adding more citric acid you hinder the natural process and carbohydrates metabolism slows. This would also increase your appetite.
