health-related literature. It is the first ever
conjoining of evidence-based mindfulness techniques

of which can quickly help to eradicate sugar
cravings and adverse physiological, emotional and
psychological effects of excessive sugar
consumption.
In this book
the reader learns that sugar addiction, or any
eating disorder fueled by addictive tendencies, is
not indicative of personal weakness or lack of
resolve to correct the problem. The reader is guided
through an easy-to-follow protocol that will

In the
nutritional sections of the book the negative and
positive effects of sugar consumption on the human
body are explored. A suggested dietary program The
Sugar Prison Diet - with 4 separate and
interchangeable components, is presented. It is
offered to the reader in such a way that the
suggested dietary components can be easily

pursuits. When an
unhealthy urge to binge or overindulge indulge in
sugar or its by products occurs, the reader can take
out one of the cards and repeat the affirmation
while maintaining mindful awareness of the urge.
This can be done aloud or silently. The short term
effect is the decrease or elimination of the present
urge. The long-term effect is the formation of a
new belief system along with the elimination of
destructive eating patterns.

effective due to its ability to deeply address both
the mind and body issues involved in sugar addiction

deathbed, in Queens, New York, that he would never let

eating habits rule your life. She succumbed to
complications arising from type 2 diabetes and breast

Paul

healthcare consultant and a former sugar addict. The
natural diet he describes in the book was largely
inspired by his work with patients in-clinic and also by
the 11 years he spent studying under Dr. Bernard Jensen,
at his Hidden Valley Health Ranch and sanitarium, in
Escondido, California. Jensen had a strong interest in
the ability of food to heal or do harm, depending on a

low self esteem; hatred; resentment; anger; depression
and aggression.
