Sugar Nation: The Hidden Truth Behind America's Deadliest Habit And The Simple Way To Beat It by Jeff O'Connell

My rating: 2 of 5 stars


I expected this book to be more about what you could do about this Sugar Nation of ours -- not an expose on the author's personal experiences (and other than saying that what he does to control it only specifically works for him because he has a unique type of situation, he doesn't go any further than that in terms of how others in this sugar nation world can deal with it).  It was also severely bogged down in facts, studies, blah blah blah, that was just way over my head in terms of what I could even grasp. 

And the author is highly critical of the medical establishment and the ADA and anything really that is being done for diabetics in our Sugar Nation -- and it was weird that that didn't appeal to me because I agreed with it.  But I guess it was the lack of well, do this, or at the very least try this.  I am not sure what the message was at all!
