I found this book to be a lifesaver. I was so addicted to sugar, and had become hypoglycemic, to the point where I was having seizures, if I didn't eat candy or sugar, the moment I started shaking and sweating profusely. I was hungry all the time, gaining weight daily it seemed like, tired all the time, and unable to concentrate. After reading this book, and following the steps for getting off the sugar and replacing it with healthy foods, that didn't let my sugar go up and down. I had no more seizures, lost weight like crazy, I have tons of energy now, and I no longer Crave Sugar 24 hrs a day, nor am I hungry all day long. I feel like I have a life again. Not to mention my risk aren't as high for being coming diabetic, which is what my Doctor told me I surely would have before. Not that I don't have a chance of still becoming one, but before it was a SURE THING.
I definetly recommend this book to anyone who struggles with sugar addiction, like I did. You will feel REBORN!

This book appears to be identical to the one that Prevention is bringing out on September 19, 2006. This 2004 edition is by Sari Harrar and Editors of Prevention, and the 2006 edition is by Ann Fannante (sp?) and the Editors of Prevention. The 2006 edition does not say 'revised' or 'updated' or anything like that. Furthermore, in the current edition of Prevention magazine, they have an article that mentions their "new" book with details from its program, but the article is by Sari Harrar!
Huh???
Sometimes I have "issues" with Prevention - but in general think they are a positive force in health-themed publications.
The earlier book by Sari Harrar, et al., is a good resource for a good health regimen.

Excellant book for the money. Amazon's ability to provide quality msde at reasonable prices is second to none.

The Sugar Solution should be a must read for everyone. So much helpful information, not just for those who have sugar issues, both high blood sugar and low blood sugar. Excellent information and Amazon offered the book at a "steal" of a price. Buy, read and enjoy this excellent book.

Book is just as all Prevention/Rodale publications are. Very informative and written in an easy lay person format. I give it a TEN!Prevention's The Sugar Solution: Balance Your Blood Sugar Naturally To Beat Disease, Lose Weight, Gain Energy, And Feel Great

I spent the winter eating every sugary thing I could - come spring, I needed to lose 12 pounds. This book has down to earth advice, recipes and meal plans to get you started. And, all the foods are "normal"! Great resource for healthy eating.
