Product Description
Product Description
Nancy Appleton, Ph.D., shows you how sugar upsets the body chemistry and devastates the endocrine and immune systems, leading to a host of diseases and conditions including hypoglycemia, diabetes, osteoporosis, arthritis, cancer, heart disease, headaches, allergies, asthma, obesity, periodontal disease, tooth decay, and more. A sugarholic since childhood, Dr. Appleton cured herself of chronic illnesses including bronchitis and pneumonia by changing her lifestyle. Here is her self-help program to help you lick the sugar habit and live a healthier life. She explains how it worked for her...and how it can work for you.
From the Author
We eat 153 pounds of sugar (1996) per person per year.
My book shows the chemical pathway that sugar takes from the time you eat as little as two teaspoons of sugar until the time it suppresses your immune system. Self help techniques are also given to stop the habit and sweet desserts without sugar. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Format:Mass Market Paperback
I recommend this book especially to anyone who has a degenerative disease, such as arthritis, osteoporsis, cancer, etc. If you want to avoid these diseases, you should read this book! I have fibromyalgia. After eliminating sugar, I feel much better. I no longer need to take drugs for energy (such as steroids) and pain relief. This book gives you a list of things you can eat (it's a long list) as well as what you should avoid. It has changed the way I shop for food.

I read this book about 1 year ago, and since then I have made major changes in my diet, following many of the suggestions in the book. It is amazing what a difference sugar makes in your health and energy level. I used to have at least 2 and sometimes 7 hypoglycemic attacks a week. I now haven't had one in over 10 months! If you have a sugar addiction, hypoglycemia, or diabetes I suggest this book highly!!! Even if you just want to improve your immune system and not get sick as much, this book is for you. I have been striving for better health since I was 6 months pregnant, and this was one of a few integral books in my success.

Format:Paperback
I am a chocoholic. Since I was in my 20s, I steadily gained weight, and after my second child was born, I no longer had any kind of equilibrium at all. Of late, other unpleasant symptoms such as gas and increasing hypoglycemic-like symptoms were troubling me, in addition to being nearly obese. My brother died last year of a heart attack at age 42, and that coupled with my own increasing cholesterol levels induced me to search for help. My doctor recommended "Mastering the Zone" but my bookstore didn't have it, so I picked up this book. Long curious about the truth of chocoholism and the effects of sugar on health, I snatched it up. I have greatly reduced the amount of sugar in my diet, and after a week, still feel kind of "loopy", but I hope in another week my energy will pick up. I think this was the boost I needed to improve my eating habits.

Save yourself six quid: "dont eat sugar!"
This is basically all the book says, it gives you many reasons why, but it boils down to that fact! Not very realistic and not something that should take a whole book to come to... Read more

Not very realistic.
Nancy Appleton's book begins by saying that it is unrealistic to single one food out as the root of all of society's health problems. However, this is exactly what she does. Read more
