It's a prime ingredient in countless substances from cereal to soup, from cola to coffee. Consumed at the rate of one hundred pounds for every American every year, it's as addictive as nicotine -- and as poisonous. It's sugar. And Sugar Blues, inspired by the crusade of Hollywood legend Gloria Swanson, is the classic, bestselling expose that unmasks our generation's greatest medical killer and shows how a revitalizing, sugar-free diet can not only change lives, but quite possibly save them.

  • PROFOUND IMPACT on my Life!

    I read this book 10 years ago, and although it was a little long on the history of sugar, it made a huge impact on my life. Ever since reading Sugar Blues, I cut down my sugar intake to maybe10% of what it was before. And I was a real "Sweet-tooth." Still am...but watch it and eat sweets very sparingly and consciously. Lost 20 lbs. too! This book did it for me! And I'm so much better off for having read it.

  • Will change how you think

    This wasn't the easiest book in the world to read - I kept waiting for it to get to the "good part". However, the content was actually very interesting and has changed my thinking about what I eat and what I allow my family to eat.

  • Change my whole outlook and the way I feel

    Sugar is a drug and can cause a lot of health problems . I done away with it for 6 months now and have lost 20lbs in the first 3 weeks and haven’t gain any of it back! It is definitely something everyone should read and become very aware of what sugar can be capable of . The tough part is getting off the sugar.

    Everyone who cares about their health should read this book! It's packed with information about what processed sugar does to us and how we can heal by eliminating it from our diets.
