The Most Important Blog Post I Ever Wrote
Dear Wonderful Visitors to this Sugar Shock Blog,
This is the most important post I’ve ever written.
As you no doubt know, obesity has skyrocketed among adults and youths alike; and children are on a track to die before their parents if they don’t change their unhealthy ways.
At the same time, coronary heart disease, cancer, stroke, type 2 diabetes and Alzheimer’s disease have become our nation’s top killers. You probably know — or love — someone who has suffered from one or all of these.
But all of the above diseases are largely preventable.
I call them The Preventable Big Killers. And ALL of these potentially fatal illnesses — and many more — can be caused by overdosing on sugar and/or refined carbs.
Think this doesn’t include you? That’s what I used to believe.
But the average American — and person in any civilized country is consuming (either consciously or unconsciously) HUGE amounts of sweets and quickie carbs on a DAILY if not many-times-a-day basis.
Each of you may be taking in roughly 170 to 228 pounds of sweeteners per year and another 200 pounds of sugar’s sinful sisters, which I dub “culprit carbs.”
And every day, it seems, the news gets more frightening.
One of my favorite recent studies revealed that sugar can make you dumb!
More research suggests that it can make you violent.
Your sweet tooth even can trigger type 2 diabetes, even though your doctor may vehemently deny it.
Simply put, millions worldwide are in Sugar Shock.
For the past decade, it has my personal mission to inspire and empower sugar
and carb addicts worldwide.
I want to help them (you?) Get a Life that Rocks™, as I like to put it. (I began coaching people to Sugar Freedom in 2002, four years after I reluctantly quit sugar on doctor’s orders after being waylaid by 44 debilitating ailments.)
So I invite you now: Help me to help transform the lives of millions of sugar and carb addicts around the world!

Join Me in San Francisco: Help Make My Book a Bestseller at Bestseller Book Launch Party
Live or work near San Francisco?
If so, join me Wednesday, May 30 between 6 and 9 pm PDT for a Bestseller Book Launch and Author Spotlight Party.
At this one-of-a-kind event, you’ll have a chance to meet several of us authors in the business and non-fiction fields, including bestselling author Marci Shimoff and yours truly.
Of course, I’m inviting you to come out and support my new book, Beyond Sugar Shock, which will be officially released two days later.
Here’s how the Betseller Book Launch Party works. You can attend for free, but what you’ll do is purchase two books on Amazon that day (see details below).
Then, you’ll be able to share our (the authors’) excitement and join in the celebration as our books blast to the top of the Amazon.com bestseller charts right there at the party. Isn’t this an innovative idea for a party?
Special thanks to Alicia Dunams, a self-publishing expert and creator of the Bestseller in A Weekend business program. This Bestseller Book Launch Party is her brainchild.
Please note that this Bestseller Book Launch Party is not a book signing — but I’ll be glad to sign books — as many as you buy.
Remember, you’ll be an integral part of our success by purchasing two of the featured authors’ books on Amazon.com on May 30, 2012, anytime between 12:01 am – 11:59 pm.
Again, I’m inviting you to get my book, Beyond Sugar Shock, during that time. (If you’re not in San Francisco, I urge you to wait until June 5 to buy my book, because that’s when we’re holding the official book launch.)
To receive complimentary admission to the Bestseller Book Party:
1) You must show proof that you purchased 2 of the featured authors’ books on May 30, 2012 when you arrive at the registration table. A print-out of an Amazon.com receipt will suffice. Or…
2) Purchase 2 of the featured authors’ books (think: my book, please!) at the event between 6 and 9pm. I’ll be there with my new laptop, so you can buy them with me watching, if you like. (I’ll be happy to post for a photo, if you like too.) You must show proof of purchase before you leave the party.
To join the other authors and me at the Bestseller Book Launch Party fun on Wed., May 30 in San Francisco, sign up here.
Special thanks to USA Today for the Best-Selling Books image. Hope it was okay to use! If not, let me know and I’ll promptly take it down!
