From the bestselling author of Potatoes Not Prozac --this is the very first diet plan specifically designed for people who are sugar sensitive.
Here is hope for readers who have tried every diet under the sun only to watch their weight boomerang.

Worth every penny. This isn't a diet book so much as it is a book about how food affects your brain, and what you can do to get the results you want. While the information is fantastic the writting could be better. If you are looking for a "just the facts" presentation of the information, see the website. The book is couched in very friendly, over explained, language, that wanders around to the point rather than just delivering the information in a straightforward manner.

I found this book to be a good read. Eliminating sugar and increasing protein is helpful but is not the entire answer the problem of depression, and learned habits. This book has the foundation of many other reduced carb books, but with its own twist. Other books that are similiar, and are just as good but without the pretense are: the fat flush, the zone, atkins diabetes revolution, and you on a diet. The experience in the radiant recovery online community was one of bullying and put-downs, even by the author herself. She does not want anyone to speak out with any knowledge except those she has hand selected, who will follow her every command. The control even exists in her radiant cat group. So unless you have no thoughts or opinions I would steer clear and find another source for your nutrition wisdom. And those hand selected people are volunteers, not paid sheep. When she finds she cannot bully you into silence, she will act as if humble and admit she is not knowledgeable about a subject. Such as the amino acid content in vegetarian foods. An area that is within her so called area of expertise.

This book is a quick summary of the eaerlier book Prozac or Potatoes, which has more details.
Enjoyable even though full of repetitions.

Well, while I enjoyed the biochemical explanations for sugar addiction, the 'diet' itself is like so many out there now. Basically, stay away from sugars and white foods (except for that potato).. It also seems to embody some of the glycemic index theories.. All in all, I wasn't impressed.. It's helped so many people though, it might be worth a shot for someone else.. GOOD LUCK!

When I read Potatoes Not Prozac, I thought, "at last, a book on diet that doesn't focus on losing weight!" After all, food acts in the body in a much more complex way than simply making you lose or gain weight. Apparently DesMaisons decided to pick up on the weight-loss market and rewrite PnP for losing weight. I felt her style of explaining how I feel now and how I'm going to feel after doing her plan, little more than the common weight-loss testamonials you see in every second-rate diet advertisement. By the way, I have eliminated sugar from my diet and it has not "changed my life" or solved all my problems. The 4 billion dollar diet industry, which DesMaisons has become a part of with this book, banks on those types of claims.
