Great Worldwide Sugar-Out Challenge: Congratulations

Congratulations to @sweetrock (www.Twitter.com/sweetrock) for making it through 24 hours without sugar.
As the first to the finish line, Mary gets a 20-minute complimentary coaching session with me.
The Great Worldwide Sugar-Out Challenge — which Dr. Scott Olson and I are co-coordinating — continues to the end of January.
More info on Monday. I’m wiped out from planning and hosting the 2-hour Gab With the Gurus Radio Show and three follow-up interviews, which will be edited shortly.

Experts, Authors & Sugar Kickers Support The Great Worldwide Sugar-Out Challenge

Quotes are starting to come in from supporters of The Great Worldwide Sugar-Out Challenge, which takes place virtually around the world on both my Gab With the Gurus Radio Show on Jan. 16 at 12 p.m. Eastern and via tantalizing tweets on the new TwitAsYouQuit site (from 12 noon Eastern on Jan. 16 to 12 p.m. on Jan. 17).
Check back here to this Sugar Shock Blog and to my three-week-old Gab With The Gurus Blog to get updates about this first-of-a-kind event that I’m presenting with Dr. Scott Olson, a naturopathic doctor and author of Sugarettes.

These often-serious conditions can be overcome by eliminating sugar, eating a healthy diet, and taking specific supplements, as needed. I have helped many of my patients and readers replace medication using this natural approach, with excellent results!….”

“As a Certified Nutritional Microscopist (live & dried blood analysis, trained by Dr. Robert O. Young), I have seen the devastation caused by the fermentation of sugar in the body. You see, sugar will either burn as a fuel (because you have enough oxygen present) OR since our body has limits to how much oxygen we can intake… sugar that cannot have oxygen to be able to burn will ferment which increases ACIDITY considerably. ”

Get Twitter Trained Before 24-Hour TwitAsYouQuit Event As Part of Great Worldwide Sugar-Out Challenge

Learn how to use Twitter before the 24-hour TwitAsYouQuit event that Dr. Scott Olson and I are presenting on Fri., Jan. 16 as part of the Great Worldwide Sugar-Out Challenge.
During the TwitAsYouQuit event — to be held from 12 noon EST on Jan. 16 to 12 noon Jan. 17 — you’ll get frequent tweets that provide you 140-character tweets on Twitter about sugar’s dangers, micro messages about how you can benefit from kicking your habit, short tips from authors of sugar books on to kick the sweet stuff, etc.
To best take advantage of the TwitAsYouQuit program, I urge you to listen to this fabulous Twitter for Journalists program first.
By the way, although this was designed as a “Twitter for Journalists” event, anybody — whether or not you’re in the journalism profession — can benefit from this fascinating program, hosted by Sree Sreenivasan, Columbia University School of Journalism’s dean of student affairs, new media professor at the Graduate School of Journalism and tech reporter for WNBC-TV.
You’ll crack up when you hear Sree’s introduction about how they’re devoting 90 minutes to a program that’s all about writing micro messages only 140 characters long.
