Product Description
Sugar sensitivity is as powerful an addiction as tobacco or alcohol—and one of the most difficult to break sugar’s prevalence in the modern diet. With one-third of our calories coming from sugar, white flour, and processed foods sugar addiction is a rapidly growing epidemic. However, unlike other addictions going “cold turkey” won’t fix it nor will a “one size fits all” approach. In this groundbreaking book, nationally recognized physician Dr. Jacob Teitelbaum uncovers four distinct sugar addiction types and gives a step-by-step plan for resolving their underlying causes and breaking sugar cravings forever.

One of the worst nutrition books that I have ever read and I've read a lot. The author cites no scientific studies to back up his claims. We all know that America's high sugar consumption is responsible for obesity and diabetes, but when the author states that sugar is responsible for mental illness he lost all credibility with me. If his claims are true he should refernce the peer reviwed study that backs up his claim. This is the National Inquirer of nutrition books. I was very disappointed.

I have been very pleased with this book. Not only is it informational, but it gives very definite and doable steps for a solution to the identified problems.

This is a terrific book in any format. It has a lot of information, very specific recommendations, and seems to address my particular version of sugar addiction in ways that most other books on the subject don't, as well as related issues (e.g., depression). Ever since I bought my Kindle, I've been hoping that Beat Sugar Addition Now would come out in Kindle format, but whenever I checked this page, no luck. I just discovered that even though this page doesn't show it, there is a Kindle version of the book. So now I can feed my Kindle addiction - but hey, at least it's sugar-free.
good information June 17, 2010

Changed the way I look at food June 5, 2010

This book has changed the way I look at food, and I am pretty excited about it. I am ready to lose weight, to feel better and to have a better life.
Having just finished reading it, I haven't started yet, but I have faith that I will. This is not an unrealistic plan and there are no specific weight loss goals or promises. Nowhere in this book does he say "You will lose 30 pounds in the first 4 months-guaranteed!" or anything like that, because those kind of claims are either BS or based on unhealthy weight loss goals.
This is not a diet book. It's not about following a plan to reach a set weight and then stopping. This is about changing your life and your lifestyle for good. It's about saying good bye to some things and adding a lot of other things in.
I thought this would just be a preachy book telling me what a bad person I am for eating brownies and how I need to do better. Instead there isn't any judgment. I never felt like he was accusing me of being fat because of what I've done. Instead, everything is very logical, just giving info about how the body processes things, how people feel when they are suffering from sugar addiction, and what people can do to get healthy again.
The book was broken up into chunks which made it very readable. First it talks about sugar addiction and you figure out what kind of sugar addict you are (there are different kinds based on what your body is doing that makes you want to eat sugar).Then there are treatment plans for each kind of addiction, and it's not just stopping eating candy. There's medicines and natural health stuff to do, and things you can take like vitamins and things to help your body do its work better.
Then there's a whole section on different diseases you might have and how you can make them better or even cure them by taking natural vitamins and getting more sleep and taking medicine and exercising and stuff.At the end there's lists of doctors and places to buy vitamins and lists of foods to eat. What I'm trying to say is this book makes it pretty easy for you. All you need to do is fill out the questions and follow what it tells you to do.
I am planning on starting right now. It's tempting to pig out on cookies tonight and then promise myself that I won't do it again and I am making a fresh start, but I think it's better to just say that starting right now I will be treating my body and myself better.
