Weight loss, getting in shape, becoming healthy IS A JOURNEY, but it's an individual journey that is different for each of us. In this book Jennifer gives you the horrifying facts of how sugar is poisoning our system, the process she used to rid herself of these harmful toxins and the post-detox phase. She explains about “partially digested proteins” and “enzymes intended to break down the food” slipping into the bloodstream and being treated as toxins. She explains how sugar greatly effects our immune system and its ability to prevent disease and to recover from it. How sugar effects our insulin production connected to the homeostatic process which can literally be making and keeping us sick. These are very valuable points that Jennifer makes in this book. The material shared in this book is very good, even valuable, but she leaves out some information that I feel would be most helpful. She did not address the issue of stevia or synthetic substitutes. I've found in my own "food" journey that wheat also effects me.
