Book Review: I Quit Sugar

This book provides a step-by-step program to help you eliminate sugar. It is full of tips, tricks, and techniques to guide you through the process. The book begins with an introduction to the author’s story and an overview of what the reader can expect. The 8-Week Program chapter gives detailed instructions, week by week. The Getting Equipped chapter covers kitchen supplies and basic recipes you will need to know before getting started. The Recipe section provides 108 sugar-free recipes. The Bits at the Back of the Book section offers a shopping list for the recipes and additional resources.

I recommend this book to anyone interested in quitting sugar and requiring someone to hold his or her hand through the process.

Book Review: Food Fix

This is not a light read. Dr. Hyman delivers a detailed description of the problems with our food system and maps out the grassroots solutions, policies, and innovations that are needed to improve our health and the health of our planet. The goal of the author is to inspire, educate, and motivate individuals, businesses, and policymakers to think differently about the issues and to implement integrated solutions. I highly recommend this book to everyone.
