Designed for "sugar-sensitive" souls searching for a way to control cravings and lose stubborn pounds, this extension of the author's Potatoes, Not Prozac and The Sugar Addict's Total Recovery Program explains that some folks have a unique body chemistry that simply does not respond to the traditional "eat less, exercise more" prescriptive. Big on testimonials and emotional support, this is a "no white food" diet (meaning no white rice, flour, sugar, potatoes, milk, etc.). This will work for some people, but like so many plans it has some basis in science but a lot more in marketing. [Previewed in Prepub Alert, LJ 8/01.] Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information.
