Reviews of Get the Sugar Out :by Ann Louise Gittleman, Anne L. Gittleman
Amazon.com
"Avoiding sugar is the easiest, safest, and most permanent way to stay
slim" is the bold promise nutritionist Ann Louise Gittleman makes in her
book Get the Sugar Out. Gittleman, who also authored Beyond
Pritikin, gives the hard facts about why refined sugar contributes to
weight gain, mood swings, weak immunity, diabetes, and more. Low-fat
diets, the book claims, frequently let people down, because
manufactured fat-free foods often contain more sugar than their full-fat
counterparts!
Don't be fooled, though: ridding your diet of sugar will not be an easy
task. The 501 tips provided in the book may seem rather daunting at
times. Luckily, Gittleman doesn't expect you to incorporate all of them
into your life. She notes, "Even if you incorporate only one-tenth of the
tips in this book, you're sure to reduce the sugar in your diet and change
your life in a positive and noticeable way." So even if you find it's too
difficult to give up your diet sodas, you can still improve your health
by
learning all the names sugar hides under (including tongue twisters such
as xylitol, sorghum syrup, mannitol, and maltodextrin) and avoiding
products that contain them. Some of Gittleman's suggestions, though,
are not only simple, but fun. For example, you can substitute frozen
grapes, raspberries, and blueberries for hard candy. This easy-to-read
book even has 50 delicious recipes (how about Peanut Butter Muffins
or "Gone Nutty" Frozen Bananas?) and a week's menu to get you
started. So if you're ready to get going on "a satisfying, high-energy,
low-sugar regimen," this just may be the book for you. --Jenny Brown
From Booklist , August 19, 1996
Her antisugar message may fall on deaf ears, since Americans consume
more than 150 pounds of the sweet substance per capita each year.
Some of her more than 500 tips place too stringent a regimen on those
used to eating moderate amounts of desserts. Nonetheless, Gittleman
proffers sound advice amid the harsh proselytizing. Scattered throughout
the tips are 50 recipes, from carrot butter to frozen parsnip dessert,
that
help encourage everyone to eliminate sugar and learn to enjoy a more
healthful lifestyle. Barbara Jacobs
