What You’ll Learn

Debunk Sugar Myths | Half the Sugar All the Love | Jennifer Tyler Lee

DEBUNK MYTHS

Did you know that less refined sweeteners, like honey, are not healthier than table sugar? And artificial sweeteners like sucralose (Splenda) and all-natural sweeteners, like Stevia and Monk fruit, should be avoided? The latest evidence-based science shows that restrictive diets aren’t sustainable and a moderate approach to balancing added sugar, saturated fats, sodium and calories results in better health (and BMI) outcomes. Jennifer shares the latest findings based on her work at Stanford Univeristy and Cornell University to help you understand the nutrition science and make positive changes for you and your family.

Uncover how to spot sneaky sugars in foods you didn’t even think were sweet (like savory dishes), and learn delicious ways to enjoy foods that are notoriously high in added sugar in a healthier way.

More About the Book

Today our kids consume at least three times the recommended daily allowance of added sugar. And it’s not just because they are drinking too many sodas. Added sugar lurks everywhere in our food—in yogurts and bottled salad dressings, in jarred tomato sauce and oatmeal packets, and on and on. And it’s a real problem—excess sugar causes a variety of health issues, including cavities, of course, but also type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and fatty liver disease.

Here to help concerned parents is a family cookbook that addresses the problem with reduced-sugar versions of kids’ favorite foods, including dessert. Functioning like a cross between Eat This, Not That and Deceptively DeliciousHalf the Sugar, All the Love is an eye-opening education, an action plan, and a cookbook all in one. It shows us how to shop smartly to avoid hidden sugars. Busts the most common myths about sugar (honey is not healthier; sugar substitutes are questionable at best). Gives seven easy tips for globally reducing added sugar at home. Helps us stock our pantries with better ingredients. And then offers 100 family friendly recipes that minimize added sugar while maximizing flavor, from granolas and yogurt pops for breakfast through big-batch sauces to make the tastiest dinners, to ingenious desserts—like Jennifer’s favorite Chocolate and Peanut Butter Snack Cake that gets its sweetness from dates.
