Welcome back for Episode 219 of The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show with Jimmy Moore!
Today, Jimmy speaks with David Gillespie, author of Sweet Poison: Why Sugar is Making Us Fat. Before the book officially becomes available in the United States, you can hear what David has dredged up about fructose metabolism (and not just from that dastardly HFCS, either!) from the scientific literature and how by simply eliminating this one form of sugar he has undergone a dramatic weight loss.
From the book’s Amazon synopsis:
David, a smart corporate lawyer equipped with an enquiring mind, begins to query why it is we are so much heavier than previous generations, and discovers a culprit: sugar, or, more specifically, the fructose component of sugar. Sweet Poison exposes one of the great health scourges of our time and offers a wealth of practical and accessible information on how to avoid fructose, increase your enjoyment of food and lose weight.
Also, don’t miss Jimmy describing a clever and convenient new way to journal your food intake without all the normal hassle of carrying a pad and pen with you. It’s called the PicoPad Food Journal, and he’ll give you the skinny on it during the show! You can find out more about this handy dandy little diet tool by clicking here. THANKS for listening!
