NEW YORK (Reuters) - Dr. Robert Atkins, advocate of a popular but controversial high-protein, low carbohydrate diet, died on Thursday, his spokesman said. He was 72.

Spokesman Richard Rothstein said Atkins died at 11:01 a.m. in the Weill Cornell Medical Center in New York, where he was admitted April 8 after falling on an icy sidewalk and hitting his head. Atkins underwent surgery for head injuries but went into a coma.
