This ground-breaking new book exposes just how dangerous sugar is and gives you simple, practical suggestions for natural and healthy alternatives.
The overload of sugar in your diet is putting your health and even your life at risk warns the UK’s leading nutritionist Dr Marilyn Glenville PhD in this essential guide to life without the white stuff.
Sugar, she warns, is largely to blame for our rising levels of stress and premature ageing including Cancer, Alzheimer's, heart disease, diabetes and overweight.
Even moderate sugar intake on a regular basis is implicated in fungal infections, mood swings, low energy and libido, brain fog and memory problems, inflammation and general lowered immunity.
Exposing just how dangerous sugar is and cutting through the myths and confusion around 'natural' sweeteners here Dr Glenville gives you practical simple suggestions for natural and healthy alternatives.
Backed by the scientific evidence, inside you will discover:
• What is ‘sugar’?
• What effects does sugar have on your health?
• How sugar can increase your risk of heart disease, cancer, diabetes and obesity
• Just how ‘natural’ are ‘natural’ sweeteners? – The answer may surprise you.
• Can supplements help curb your cravings?
• A simple 5 day sugar detox plan
• 36 delicious sweet recipes made without sugar
It’s time to ditch the sugar, banish those sugar cravings once and for all and enjoy a healthy sugar-free life. And this book will show you how.
Dr Marilyn Glenville, the UK's leading nutritionist specialising in women’s health, gives you all the information you need about sugar and how it effects your health.
Introduction:
Who doesn’t love a sugary treat? From cupcakes to chocolate bars, from the great British Bake-Off to Sunday afternoon crumpets and cake, we’ve been raised on the sweet stuff – sugar has been a lifelong treat for most of us. But now the tide is turning. Over the last few years the media has been full of stories about the problems with sugar in our diet. Not to put too fine a point on it – we are putting our health and even our lives at risk with the overload of sugar in our diet.
However it seems there is still a great deal of confusion out there surrounding sugar.
What do we mean by ‘sugar’?
What effects does sugar have on your health?
If you do cut out or reduce sugar, what do you replace it with?
Again and again I am asked questions about sugar, both during consultations and following my talks. It is clear that people are still confused about the whole sugar issue: they want clear explanations of exactly why it is not good for their heath and what they can do about it. Hence this book…

Does all this really make a difference?
When you take vitamins, minerals, and herbs, you aim to give your body the tools to heal itself and maintain good health.
Unfortunately, many supplements nowadays contain unnecessary and potentially harmful substances, making your body work harder to eliminate them.
You may not realise that they can be full of ‘nasties’ - non-active ingredients - like, fillers, bulking and anti-caking agents, disintegrants and lubricants.
These chemicals are in there to help the manufacturing process flow through the machines.
Good for the machines maybe but certainly not good for your body.
If your body expends energy dealing with these substances, it may divert energy from other areas essential for maintaining or restoring good health, potentially causing additional health problems and low energy.
It's crucial that the vitamins, minerals, and herbs you consume contain only the highest quality ingredients possible and are Free From all nasties.
Not all supplements are made equal, and knowing what to look for is important.
Sounds daunting doesn’t it?
But don’t worry because, if you don’t have the time or inclination, (or a degree in chemistry), to go round reading labels on every pot of vitamins or minerals, Dr Glenville has already done the work and scrutinised the labels for you.
And only when she is completely satisfied that the products are Free From all the ‘nasties’ and in their most bio-available form and at the highest safe dosage level will she award it her ‘Seal of Approval’.’.
You can rest assured that all NHP supplements have Dr Glenville’s exclusive ‘Seal of Approval’ and are safe, effective and healthy for you.
