Vivianne Parnell has written an interesting little book about how to avoid sugar or at least consume very little. The facts are that you won't be able to eat a lot of processed foods.This book has some good and bad advice. The good advice includes information on how to cut down your sugar consumption. The bad advice involves suggesting artificial sweeteners as substitutes for sugar. The author does not even mention a natural alternative called Stevia.After reading this book you may start to drink whole milk and stop drinking fruit drinks. It was shocking to learn that apple juice has more sugar than coke.Some problems I found with this book included the advice to eat as much meat and nuts as you like. I think moderation is best. Also the author cautions against eating too much fruit. This goes contrary to some current diets that say you can eat as much fruit as you like and still lose weight.So like with all health books you should pick and choose what you want to believe.~The Rebecca Review
