If sugar were put on the market for the first time today, it would be difficult to get it past the FDA. Eating sweets can give us a temporary emotional boost, which leads to a craving for still more sweets. Many people who suffer from sugar sensitivity don't even know it; they continue to consume large quantities of sweets, breads, pasta or alcohol. These foods can trigger feelings of exhaustion and low self-esteem, yet their biochemical impact makes sugar-sensitive people crave them even more. This vicious cycle can continue for years, leaving sufferers overweight, fatigued and depressed. Using the self -test from the book Potatoes Not Prozac by Dr. Kathleen Des Maisons, Dr Karen gives you the tool to determine your sugar sensitivity and guides you on the path to no longer living in secret shame because you will understand these behaviors are part of addiction.
