A short new book by author Kathy Heshelow explains what people should know about sugar. It also covers how much of it they eat and how to cut back for a healthier life. It is called Break Sugar Cravings or Addiction, Feel Full, Lose Weight, and it is available now on Amazon. Its subtitle promises an astonishing method based on aromatic plant oils.
Heshelow said many people struggle to start living healthier while not realizing that sugar is addictive and can undermine their efforts. She also pointed out that sugar hides in many foods.
The book presents a number of startling facts and health issues tied to sugar. According to the author, many readers miss one point. Sugar acts on the same part of the brain as cocaine and nicotine. That response, she writes, is what drives cravings.
Another point is scale. Sugar intake has climbed sharply in recent decades. The book then links that rise to the growth of several related diseases. Americans now eat as much sugar in 2 weeks as their ancestors ate in a whole year. In fact, diabetes was a rare disease until the middle of the nineteenth century.
Beyond the facts, which come with references, the book offers a specific action plan built on natural methods. It also includes lifestyle tips and practical aids.
Heshelow said she wrote the short book for the many people who are overweight and hooked on sugar. Such readers, in her view, need a clear path out. She believes information is power. She also noted that the new year is a good moment to begin.
Heshelow has published a number of books on two main subjects, and most of them deal with wellness. She is working on 2 new titles for 2018. She also founded Sublime Naturals, a wellness store that sells aromatic oils and natural products. In addition, she hosts a podcast about these oils, with new episodes coming soon.
