Isn't caffeine supposed to help burn fat?

caffeine slows the metabolism and the Atkins diet is designed to speed it up

you should spend the money and buy the Atkins book it explains it all.
Anyway, caffeine doesn't help you burn fat it just gives you a enzyme boost which gives you energy but it also taxes your liver and on atkins you are already doing that when you go into Ketosis. If you follow the diet you won't want caffiene after a few days because you will have all the energy you need.
Is this hard for you to understand?

I'm no Atkins expert but I think the idea is that caffiene is a stimulant and may increase your appetite.
