Day 95
Yesterday I started reading “Potatoes not Prozac” by Kathleen DesMaisons, PhD. I was interested in this book because I know that so many women (especially, but men too) are taking anti-anxiety medication, and sleep medications. The diet is one piece of the solution, and no added sugar can make a big difference.
The introduction and first chapter talked about sugar sensitivity based on our genes and the lived experiences of our ancestors. Basically, if you are sugar addicted, it is not your fault. I know this, but it was reassuring to read it again from a scientist. The meat of the book is about how you can change your diet to allow your body to readjust and no longer be hooked on sugar.
I’m hooked on the book and can’t wait to read more, and tell you more too.
