"Interesting book. I've tried eating a potato before bedtime like she suggests, and didn't notice any difference in sleep. I'm not a sugar addict, tho, so it could help those addicted to sugar."
"I'm currently reading this book for the second time because I need the reminder the author gives me. The book supports what I'm trying to change in my own eating habits. She (the author) gives research as well as solutions to overcoming what really is an addiction."
"a very simple approach to eating, taking small steps and slowly eliminating sugar from my diet. easy to read, great suggestions, with grocery list and recipes. how food effects physiology (serotonin levels). choosing the right foods can heal depression and many other ailments. Protein, protein, protein with every meal. this recovery program does not ban any certain food groups, only sugar."
