Synopsis

If you suffer from ailments your doctors can't seem to diagnose or help—mysterious rashes, unpredictable digestive problems, debilitating headaches, mood and energy swings, constant tiredness—nerve compression is the likely cause. Sugar Crush exposes the shocking truth about how a diet high in sugar, processed carbohydrates, and wheat compresses and damages the peripheral nerves of the body.

Over the years, Dr. Richard Jacoby has treated thousands of patients with peripheral neuropathy. Now, he shares his insights as well as the story of how he connected the dots to determine how sugar is the common denominator of many chronic diseases. In Sugar Crush, he offers a unique holistic approach to understanding the exacting toll sugar and carbs take on the body. Based on his clinical work, he breaks down his highly effective methods, showing how dietary changes reducing sugar and wheat, coinciding with an increase of good fats, can dramatically help regenerate nerves and rehabilitate their normal function.

Sugar Crush includes a quiz to assess your nerve damage, practical dietary advice, and the latest thinking on ways to prevent and reverse neuropathy.

One of my patients recommended this to me. He said another doctor had told him it was a must read. More than making my personal diet healthier and less infused with sugar, I found the historic development of the American Diet much more telling. Pretty much every American that eats food should read t......more

An informative book for those wanting to learn more about the connection between sugar and diabetes, specifically, how the effects of diabetes are related to sugar consumption. I picked up SUGAR CRUSH wanting something a bit less narrow and less technical than it turned out to be. While the summary......more

Interesting info but maybe too medical-ly. After I finished reading it, I ate a bowl of ice cream. It would probably be good to cut out all sugar though. One day. It'll be my goal one day. It's just not my goal today.......more

Goodreads review by Whitney on June 15, 2016

Excellent book. The more I learn about the sugar industry the more I realize the destruction it has caused our society. Sugar is a drug and we are all addicted.
