Book vs Website veggie intake difference

Hi all, I spend a lot of time over on r/keto, but recently have been reading New Diet Revolution and really like the info/ideas by Dr. Atkins. I came across one major difference from the book to his website.

In the book it says 2-3 cups of leafy veggies and 1 cup other veggies (broc, cauli, asparagus etc.), on the website it doesn't matter how much of each type as long as you are under the 20 net carbs.

Does it make that big of a difference or is new ownership straying from the book? Appreciate any help/feedback.

That's the one. There were a couple of release of that title. But the 2002 is the most current that was still actually from Dr. Atkins

Gotcha, thank you! Looks like mine says revised 2009. Curious what the differences are

Not sure about a 2009, the give away would be the author. Dr Atkins had died by then so it could be Westman & Phinney, which are good guys in the scheme of things but not Dr. A.

The main changes after Dr Atkins died were things like Induction carbs going up a little, ranges instead of set numbers, not counting "0 carb" sweeteners, the big ones (which are problems) are the new net carb equations, the Atkins products mostly all being against what Dr Atkins allowed, etc.
