I have just started my second 21 day sugar detox, the first time I did it without the actual book (I just used the yes/no list and made my own meal plan). I had just had a baby and needed to lose quite a few pounds. It went hand and hand with me transitioning to the Paleo lifestyle. It was difficult in the beginning, but really worth it! I lost about 25 pounds and I really did "bust the sugar cravings." It is kind of amazing how dependent we are on sugar. I didn't really consider myself that much of a sweet tooth, but I really benefited from doing this detox anyway.

Anyway, here in the middle of my second detox, I am SO glad I decided to purchase the book. There is some pretty good information about sugar and how it works in your body in general. There is also a quiz which helps you decide which level of detox is right for you. And the cool thing is, even athletes, pregnant and nursing mothers can participate (with some modifications)! This diet is truly a way of life that anyone can follow. AND the book has quite a few recipes to use, including some of the "kitchen basics" like bone broth and even ketchup!
I would highly recommend this diet to ANYONE who wants to lose a little weight, clear up their skin, and just become healthier in general
