Where is your sugar coming from? Most likely everywhere. Sure, it's in ice cream and cookies, but what scared Eve O. Schaub was the secret world of sugar - hidden in bacon, crackers, salad dressing, pasta sauce, chicken broth, and baby food. With her eyes open by the work of obesity expert Dr. Robert Lustig and others, Eve challenged her husband and two school-age daughters to join her on a quest to eat no added sugar for an entire year. Along the way, Eve uncovered the real costs of our sugar-heavy American diet including diabetes, obesity, and increased incidences of health problems such as heart disease and cancer. The stories, tips, and recipes she shares throw fresh light on questionable nutritional advice we've been following for years and show that it is possible to eat at restaurants and go grocery shopping - with less and even no added sugar.

Critic reviews

"The diary I wish I had kept...the adventures of her family, the roadblocks they encountered, and the sheer daily difficulty of overcoming a national obsession." (From the foreword by David Gillespie, author of Sweet Poison)

I enjoyed this audible book. Sometimes I wanted more of the science and less family drama. I see why the author included those details as it made it more believable what a hard year it was and how hard the years after we're going to be.

Very intriguing

This is a great book and story. It flows so well and the narrator is amazing! (Currently looking for other books read by her)

This is my 4th time listening to this book as I drive a lot so I can go through a book a day.

This is worth while listening to this. You will love it

Very inspiring and interesting topic. I would have e liked to know more about the changes they saw in their moods,bodies, and sleep habits. I did not like how the narrator changed her voice for the children, it was annoying.

Inspirational

Would you listen to Year of No Sugar again? Why?

Yes, I loved the idea of having not sugar for a year. Using her family with the project was very relatable because I myself would love to try something like that. I would actually listen to this book again for her ideas and tips of what she did to get through the year.

What did you like best about this story?

Eve is honest and easy to relate to. She write's well and with Hillary Huber reading it I enjoyed this a great deal. Nutrition is a topic I am always interested in.

Have you listened to any of Hillary Huber and John Lee ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes, and they all sound great.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It made me really consider how horrible sugar is and how much we don't need it in our diets. It really made me think and possibly want to try something like her experiment.

Any additional comments?

Eve has a website that is also a nice read as well.

Smart read for ridding sugar from your diet

I enjoyed the book a lot. It gave me facts that I am looking for. It was written in a way that I thoroughly identify with. The story gave me background to present day and summed up afterwards. I would recommend it to my friends and family.

Have me steal heads up on what sugar is & is not
