More than two decades ago, Nancy Appleton's 'Lick the Sugar Habit' exposed the health dangers of a high-sugar diet. Now, in SUICIDE BY SUGAR, Appleton, along with journalist G.N. Jacobs, presents a broader view of the problems caused by our favourite ingredient. Through a collection of articles, the authors offer startling facts linking a range of disorders - from dementia and hypoglycemia to obesity and cancer - to our growing addiction to sugar. The book also includes a sound diet plan that leads the way to good health, along with a number of recipes for sweet, easy-to-prepare, delectable dishes - all made without sugar or fruit.
