Stop SUGAR SHOCK! Radio will present some very exciting, cutting-edge guests in the next three weeks.
First off, tomorrow — that’s Tuesday,July 24 — I have the distinct honor of interviewing the amazing Roberta Ruggiero, founder and president of the wonderfully worthwhile non-profit organization, Hypoglycemia Support Foundation at 4 p.m. EST.
Roberta, as you can read in my book SUGAR SHOCK!, was my entire support network when I kicked sugar back in 1998.
She also, as you’ll soon find out, is a woman with a heart of gold.
If you have any baffling ailments such as headaches, heart palpitations, mood swings and anxiety, you’ll want to tune into our show, because you could have hypoglycemia, and Roberta has an amazing perspective about the subject — both as a sufferer and as a leader, who’s helped millions around the world.
You can listen live here to the Robert Ruggiero interview or you listen here after the fact, at your convenience.
Then on Wednesday — that’s July 25 — tune in at 4 p.m. EST for a special program, "Is Big Food Being Altruistic or Pressured to Stop Advertising to Kids Under 12?"
My guest will be renowned children’s health advocate Susan Linn, author of Consuming Kids.
The incredibly articulate Susan, who I also interviewed in my book SUGAR SHOCK!, is an instructor in psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and Associate Director of the Media Center at Judge Baker Children’s Center.
She’s also co-founder of the coalition Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood.
Then, the following week, on Wednesday, Aug. 1, also at 4 p.m. EST, I will have the distinct pleasure to interview leading weight loss expert Brian Wasink, Ph.D., director of the Cornell University Food and Brand Lab.
Dr. Wasink is author of the much-acclaimed book, Mindless Eating: Why We Eat More Than We Think.
Publishers Weekly said of this book: "This peppy, somewhat pop-psych book argues that we don’t have to change what we eat as much as how, and that by making more mindful food-related decisions we can start to eat and live better.
"The author’s approach isn’t so much a diet book as a how-to on better facilitating the interaction between the feed-me messages of our stomachs and the controls in our heads…"
Remember, you can listen to all three shows live or you can tune in here after the fact.
