Publisher's Summary

Lose up to a pound a day and curb your craving for sweets with delicious recipes and simple, science-based food swaps from David Zinczenko, Good Morning America's health and wellness editor and best-selling author of Zero Belly Diet, Zero Belly Smoothies, and Eat This, Not That! 

With Zero Sugar Diet, New York Times best-selling author David Zinczenko continues his 20-year mission to help Americans live their happiest and healthiest lives, uncovering revolutionary new research that explains why you can't lose weight - and shows that it's not your fault! The true culprit is sugar - specifically added sugars that food manufacturers sneak into almost everything we eat, from bread to cold cuts to yogurt, peanut butter, pizza, and even "health" foods. 

Until now there's been no way to tell how much added sugar you're eating - or how to avoid it without sacrifice. But with the simple steps in Zero Sugar Diet, you'll be able to eat all your favorite foods and strip away unnecessary sugars - losing weight at a rate of up to one pound per day while still enjoying the sweeter things in life. 

By replacing empty calories with essential ones - swapping in whole foods and fiber and swapping out added sugars - you'll conquer your cravings and prevent the blood sugar surge that leads to some of the worst health scourges in America today, including abdominal fat, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, liver disease, fatigue, and tooth decay. 

And all it takes is 14 days. You'll be stunned by the reported results: 

Lisa Gardner, 49, lost 10 pounds 

Tara Anderson, 42, lost 10 pounds  

David Menkhaus, 62, lost 15 pounds 

Ricky Casados, 56, lost 12 pounds 

You, too, can melt away belly fat, boost your energy levels and metabolism, and take control of your health and your life, armed with a comprehensive grocery list of fresh produce, proteins, whole grains, and even prepared meals, accompanied by two weeks' worth of fiber-rich breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snack recipes and real-life results from successful Zero Sugar dieters. The fat-burning formula for long-term weight loss and optimal health is at your fingertips. Join in the crusade, and say good-bye to added sugars - and good-bye to your belly - with Zero Sugar Diet!

Endless Repetition

Useful information, but this book wants to be an hour long, not 5 hrs of endlessly repeating facts

This should scare the sh,shi... sugar out of you

If, like me, you need solid evidence to convince you to give up sugar, Zero Sugar Diet might be the ticket to conquering an addiction that is as serious as any addiction. As someone who knows well what most foods consist of (protein, carbs, fats, fiber, etc.), my mouthful of sweet teeth has always over-ridden my brain and made it very difficult to say 'no' to sugar. I have known for many, many years that I needed to cut down on sugar consumption, and have tried many diets to do so, but always failed. Having listened to this book, I gained some very scary insight into how I have been abusing my body in so many ways; some of which I was aware of, others not so much. Zinczenko's research shows how sugar is basically poison, but how it is used by the food industry to keep the consumer coming back for more. Of the many, many books I have read and listened to on nutrition, this is the FIRST that has struck such a deep cord with me. I am confident I can succeed at getting the sweet stuff out of my diet, and make a permanent lifestyle change. Hopefully, Zinczenko has succeeded in scaring the sh, shi..., sugar out of me. This is a very well written book. It's a fairly easy read, and as someone with a healthcare background, I found it very easy to understand, but you will get the gist of the program even if you don't quite grasp the scientific explanations.

Consumer Beware

Information Everyone Should Know. I've recommended this book to friends who have young children. I've given this book a glowing review to my doctor. Added sugar is in almost everything and has very negative effects on our health. This book has a lot of scientific information but is written in an engaging and entertaining way. It is excellent. It should be required reading in high school. Everyone would be helped by knowing this information.

life changing

this book gave me so much insight on food and how it affects the body. it makes sense and is doable with some planning.

Great concept and very thorough!

I didn't realize how much sugar I was taking in daily until I listened to this book! The book is very informative and will go pretty in depth. Even If you don't have a basic understanding of nutrition, this is a great resource to learn how to read food labels and clean up your eating habits.

Entertaining and Educational

This book educated me big time on nutrition. Although the topic was about sugar, it also talked about the benefits and strategy to reduce sugar cravings and lower body fat. I give this book 2 thumbs up! Just get it, you will be amazed by what you hear. Good luck.

Very interesting!

Would you listen to Zero Sugar Diet again? Why?

Yes, I found it very interesting to hear how we are being lied to and manipulated by the food industry.

Eye opening and detailed.

Love it. Makes sense. Explains what sugar does to the body and how to avoid it.

Excellent

Great science and tips! Sugar makes us sick and the book does a great job explaining this.

Good information.

Loved it and I am going to give it a try. Here we go! Thanks
