Description

Sugar is toxic, addictive and everywhere. This is the reality of our sugar-laden food, which is responsible for our chronically expanding waistlines, soaring levels of diabetes and a catalogue of diseases. Dr Robert Lustig reveals the truth about sugar's impact on our health. Conventional low-fat weight loss advice won't work, as not every calorie is the same, and skipping lunch doesn't mean it's okay to eat dessert. Dr Lustig explains how too much sugar can cause serious illness, even if you are not overweight. He also reveals how the food industry is filling our diets with hidden sugars, and which foods you must cut out to avoid them. By radically changing the way you see your food, Dr Lustig gives you more than a fat chance of a healthier, happier and smarter life.
