I love hearing from readers of my book SUGAR SHOCK! as well as visitors to my website or this SUGAR SHOCK! Blog.
For instance, JoLynn Braley, founder of the The Fit Shack blog, writes in to say that she believes sugar is addictive, a conclusion she arrived with the help of William Dufty (Sugar Blues) and Kathleen DesMaisons (Potatoes, Not Prozac).
"I personally think it’s
(sugar) all about money so we’re not going to be seeing anyone step in and
`take care of us’… Each of us has to be responsible for ourselves."
Very good point, JoLynn. We are the ones who can say yeah or nay to sweets. It’s up to us alone.
"Anyway," she continues, "I’m very passionate about this topic and I
believe it’s one of the reasons that people struggle so much with overweight. I
actually did an experiment on myself for a month during which I eliminated all
refined sugar, sugar alcohols, and foods high in natural sugar."
I totally applaud JoLynn’s approach to use
herself as a guinea pig. In fact, I highly recommend taking this kind
of dispassionate look at yourself. Just listen what a wonderful
discovery abstaining from sugar proved to be for her.
"What was different about this for me was eliminating the
sugar alcohols and foods high in natural sugar, because normally I wouldn’t be
eating sugar itself. When I cut out the other 2, my cravings completely
decreased. I still had emotional cravings sometimes, but not physical."
She then concludes:
"Keep up the great work of spreading the word on the
killer sugar. I consider it to be a drug just like any other."
Well, JoLynn — who admits that she hasn’t yet read my book — will
you’ll definitely find the chapter about sugar dependency. Wanna learn
more about this concept? I do hope you’ll get my book now.
