Is America Addicted To Sugar?

America has an addiction problem, but it's not just with drugs or alcohol—it's with sugar. Sugar is in almost everything we eat—not just in the highly processed, fructose-soaked snacks we love, but hidden in “healthier” foods that most people wouldn't expect, such as bread, fruit, and dairy. The side effects aren't just weight gain—they're premature aging and increased risk of diabetes, atherosclerosis, heart disease, and even cataracts. In The Sugar Detox: Lose Weight, Feel Great, and Look Years Younger by nutritionist Brooke Alpert and dermatologist Dr. Patricia Farris, readers are given everything they need to know to begin a healthier lifestyle through an easy, low-sugar diet. By eliminating sugar and incorporating small changes, people can lead a healthier lifestyle and look years younger.
