Description

Sugar consumption is a time bomb, causing an increase in obesity and other health problems. It is the issue that has been all over the media and, now, a medical professional provides a comprehensive guide to the hidden sugar content of over 3,000 different foods.

Instead of depending on the information stated on food packaging Dr Roberts draws on the 2015 CoFID database, the most up-to-date scientific guide to the sugar actually in your food, and breaks it down into the healthy naturally occurring sugars and the unhealthy added sugars.

Elizabeth Roberts specialises in the role of nutrition in preventing, and treating, medical conditions. This fresh approach and her practical guidance will allow readers to take charge of their health.

More on this Book

In this practical handbook Elizabeth Roberts includes the total sugar content of over 3,000 common foods, with a full guide to reading food labels and what to look for on a list of ingredients. As the dangers of sugar, especially added sugars, are becoming more apparent, there has never been a greater need to be able to know how much sugar we are consuming. There are many types of sugar, but only two of them, fructose and glucose, are associated with obesity, diabetes, and other health problems. Sugars can be hidden, and in this practical handbook Elizabeth Roberts lists the total sugar content of over 3,000 common foods and; uniquely, identifies the total amount of sugar (as well as the individual amounts of the differing types of sugar) to allow the reader to judge the health implications of their diet. The book includes a full guide to reading food labels and what to look for on a list of ingredients.
