Sugarettes by Scott Olson
Sugar is killing you. If you are typical, you are consuming enough sugar (or foods that act like sugar) to cause damage throughout your body. The destruction brought on by sugar doesn't happen quickly, but slowly over time; much like the damage done by another addictive substance: cigarettes. Sugarettes, by Dr. Scott Olson ND, explores our obsession with sugar and its resulting health consequences. The average person eats an astonishing half-pound of sugar a day. For many of us, we don't eat that much sugar because we want to, but because we have to-much like any other addict. While the taste might be sweet to the tongue, the effects of this sugary compulsion are not. Sugar addiction is a contributing factor to the worldwide epidemic of diabetes, heart disease, and obesity and other health problems. With such a tempting enemy, is it any wonder we are losing the health wars? Dr. Scott's Sugarettes forces us to look at our sugar addiction and what consequences it has for our health. It details specific and actionable steps every individual can take to master their diets and take control of their addictive relationship with sugar, empowering consumers with the tools to change their lives and their heath.

Spurred on by his patients' struggles with sugar addiction, he was determined to discover just how addictive and harmful sugar can be and ways to overcome that addiction.
