well it isn't 'now' because the story as reported over here hasn't changed. They said they weren't making the judgement on the diet as a whole but said that it was not appropriate for hospital meals to be designed for the Atkins diet. Just like if you were on slimfast they would say that if you are about to go in for surgery or if you are ill enough to be in hospital that it might not be the time for you to be having a shake for a meal.
The people from the hospital interviewed on the news over here said that wether or not it is healthy in the long run is the concern of another part of the health service and wasn't what they were commenting on.
