Sugarless

A 7-Step Plan to Uncover Hidden Sugars, Curb Your Cravings, and Conquer Your Addiction

De: Nicole M. Avena PhD, Daniel Amen MD - foreword

Narrado por: Kim Ramirez

Many people blame sugar cravings on lack of willpower rather than accept that sugar is highly addictive—even more so than cocaine, nicotine, and alcohol. The problem isn't just dessert, but the fact that sugar is everywhere. Approximately 80% of products in supermarkets contain sugar, so it's unsurprising that many people struggle to eliminate it from their diets. In Sugarless, Dr. Nicole Avena—a pioneering neuroscientist on food addiction—spells out the substance's detrimental effects on the brain and body. She empowers listeners with an easy seven-step program to help them find the hidden sugars in their foods, control their sweet tooth, and break the vicious diet cycle for good. Sugarless also includes thirty sugar-free recipes.

I Hoped for Something New

I have been researching information regarding my sugar addiction for some time. So when I saw this book was recently released I thought I might learn something new. The author's research information was the most interesting part of the book. After that, it just seemed too simplistic...but again, I've been reading/researching about this subject for a long time. Also, the narrator says, I think it was... "exacer-tate" instead of exacerbate, among some other mispronunciations or inconsistent pronunciations. No, that doesn't really take away from the story but for a listener like me, my mind short-circuits a bit. Like "why"??? Editors?? And whenever a book is science-based accuracy and consistency are super important.
