What Readers think of Sweet Poison"I'm not one to usually pass on feedback but your book has really hit a nerve. It has made me re-think my entire strategy about weight loss.
I have been trying to lose a few kilos for about a year, I exercise most days and try to do all the right things but nothing. Since reading your book, I have lost 2.5 kgs, lost 3cm of my waist and 2cm off my hips in only a few weeks!!"Mirella"What a fascinating read. My only wish is that every man woman and child capable of reading, reads this book."Siobhan"I believe that this book is the ONE OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL BOOKS I HAVE EVER READ. My Weight is down (17kg in 10 weeks), and even better my blood sugar is down from 8.4 to 5.6."Malcolm

-
Sugar was once such a rare resource that nature decided we didn't need an off-switch - in other words, we can keep eating sugar without feeling full.
- In the space of 150 years, we have gone from eating no added sugar to more than a kilogram a week.
- You would need to run 7km every day of your life just to not put on weight as a result of eating thatmuch sugar.
- Two decades ago 1 in 14 adult Australians were obese; that figure is now 1 in 5.
-
The 'natural' sugar in one glass of unsweetened fruit juice per day for a year is enough to add just over 2.5kg your waistline.
-
The more sugar we eat, the more we want. Food manufacturers exploit our sugar addiction by lacing it through 'non-sweet' products, such as bread, sauces, soups and cereals.
