Synopsis

THIS BOOK COULD SAVE YOUR LIFE

Every five seconds, one more person develops diabetes.
Worldwide, 285 million people are affected by type 2 diabetes.
Many of them have no idea.

Here is the personal story of one man who has unearthed the mysteries of this global epidemic and offers hard-won practical advice for how readers can take control of their lives and combat this deadly disease.

"Sugar Nation is a must-read! As a fitness expert myself, who has dealt with family diabetes and coaching families on how to limit their sugar intake, this book is a fundamental tool in educating the world on just how dangerous dietary sugar can be. Jeff O'Connell's direct yet user-friendly approach to this important and overlooked subject is more than refreshing. All will benefit from picking this book up." -- Jennifer Nicole Lee, author of The Jennifer Nicole Lee Fitness Model Diet
