Dr Libby's Sweet Food Story

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Countless people make great food choices for breakfast and lunch, but then at 3 o'clock in the afternoon or after dinner, they feel like someone else has taken over their body. The desire for, and subsequent consumption of, sweet food can take hold without you really knowing why or what to do about it.

Too many people reach for sweet food that doesn't serve their health; in fact, it may contain substances that actually have the potential to take away from their health. Yet, they feel powerless to live any differently, having "tried" to change their sweet food habits many times.

Dr Libby explains the sugar conundrum, how the body uses sweet foods and ingredients, and why you may crave them. She also elucidates the biochemical pathways involved in the digestion, absorption, and utilisation of sweet foods, and provides you with recipes created by the incredible Chef Cynthia Louise. These recipes offer practical and delicious ways to enjoy sweet foods made from whole-food ingredients.

Included in Dr Libby's Sweet Food Story are drinks, sauces, snacks, baking, puddings, and desserts that your body, mind, and soul will thank you for.
