Synopsis Drawing on biochemistry research that suggests sugar temporarily elevates one's moods, nutritionist Kathleen Des Maisons offers a reduced-sugar diet plan for readers who wish to eliminate their cravings for sweets, but not that "feel good" high desserts may bring. Consistent with the advice she offered in POTATOES NOT PROZAC, Des Maisons advises readers to consume a potato each night, which may increase the production of the mood-boosting brain chemical serotonin. This plan completely excludes sugar while allowing readers to eat meat, whole grains, dairy products, and moderate amounts of complex carbohydrates.

Industry Reviews "This is a sensible approach that will surely tempt sugar lovers hoping to find a natural, long-range solution to their addiction, and ultimately change their lives." Publishers Weekly (11/20/2000)
