Description
Book SynopsisWith this revised and expanded update of the 1982 classic 'The Sugar Trap', Beatrice Trum Hunter, noted writer on food issues, brings us invaluable help for avoiding "the sweetener trap." She exposes facts about today's many sweeteners - from aspartame to stevia, sucralose and xylitol. With careful research and well-weighed advice, Hunter tells why you should limit all added sugars. With awareness, you can do it, despite misleading labeling, sly marketing tactics and vague federal recommendations for sweetener intake that reflect research bias and strong pressures from sweetener interests.
Trade Review"No one does a better job of reporting on issues of food choices and food sarety than Beatrice Trum Hunter. This book exposes the problem, politics, and profliferation of both natural and artificial sweeteners, what to be aware of and what to do about it." -- Jerry Mittelman, former president of the International Academy for Preventive Medicine "Author, Healthy Teeth for Kids"
