Lustig is a doctor who convinced me that fructose is the devil. Well, not the devil exactly, but he did convince me that it is something we should moderate because we eat too darn much of it.
Oh so true. IT's in EVERYTHING. I do not understand why food producers feel the need to add sugar to things. Bacon? Come on. Chicken Broth? Really? And Sunkist Tuna Fish? WTF?
I've become an expert at reading labels.
Oh...two more diet book recs - this time from my sisterinlaw.
I literally cleaned my cabinets of all grains, all sugars, and most diary. Although I'm not completely convinced on the dairy.
Also apparently there's a wee bit of disagreement on buckwheat and dairy from Paleo experts. (Sigh - the only thing they appear to agree on is wheat and sugar are evil.)
Won't give anything away except to say that I spent an inordinate amount of time thinking it would be aliens. It's not aliens.
Hee, this made me giggle out loud. I may want to read that book.
I honestly can't remember half the books I read. I know I read a lot of them. Vaguely remember Ready Player One, the book by Kim Harrison, and The Heiress Effect...also my attempt to read Dance of Dragons, but everything else is a blur.
