Publishers Text
The average American consumes 21 teaspoon of added sugars a day. It's not surprising that sugar is a major contributing factor in the nation's growing obesity epidemic. As consumer awareness of sugar's health implications increases, so does the list of books on the subject. Most of these books advise readers to cut back on sweets, but they don't say how. This volume uses entertaining, inspirational personal profiles as the foundation for practical, actionable strategies that empower readers to take charge of an out-of-control sweet tooth.
Here are 120 real-life stories of people who have struggled against sugar and emerged victorious. Readers will meet Donna, who traded chocolate for water; Paula, who hides away sweets and is no longer attempted to find them; and Robert, who takes a hike when cravings strike. Each profile ends with a Winning Actiona tested, proven technique that can help anyone overcome their cravings. Also featuring a self-test for readers to assess how much sugar they consume and why, a chart identifying the top 50 sugar sources, and a 10-step action plan for reducing sugar consumption.
