Blogcritics.org Writer Gives SUGAR SHOCK! The Thumbs Up
What a day! Just learned about a really nice review on Blogcritics.org by from Brandon Daviet. Here's some of what he said:
"In her book Sugar Shock, journalist Connie Bennett unravels the misconceptions and dangers behind a substance that has been in widespread production and use since around at least 600 A.D. and makes up a glutton's share of America’s economic pie chart. There is no question that sugar will always have its place on the world’s culinary palette, but just like any other addiction, moderation and understanding is critical to avoiding abuse.
"That’s where Sugar Shock excels as one of the better written self-help books around. Packed with well researched facts and helpful suggestions, it is no surprise that the book is garnering great reviews...."It’s this collection of opinions from over 250 doctors, and even lawyers, hailing from respected institutions like Harvard and Yale, as opposed to the lesser known experts that you see on late night 'infomercials,' that make Sugar Shock stand out in the already overcrowded market of self-help proclamations. In addition, the book is co-written by Stephen T. Sinatra, M.D. who helps bring another level of credibility, and readability, to the pages of Sugar Shock.
"No matter if you're battling obesity, trying to protect your children’s health, or just curious about one of the worlds most loved “guilty pleasures,” Sugar Shock is an interesting and important read that offers solutions and strategies to reduce sugar intake and improve your health that go far beyond just condemning chocolate bars and moon pies."
