Story
Good Sugar Bad Sugar tackles the biggest dietary threat to the modern world: sugar. Due to refined sugar in so many foods, we are seeing epidemics of obesity and type II diabetes on a global scale. The warnings are stark - a 50 percent rise in the death toll from type II diabetes in the next 10 years - yet it's not as straightforward as telling people to cut down on the sugar. Sugar consumption is an addiction that begins at birth and it requires a proven method to get you free.

Should be called Quit Eating Junk Food
I got this as am a Yo yo dieter who craves bad food and thinks of it as a treat. I was deprived of food as a child.
This talks constantly about junk food which I don't eat and never eat takeaway food. I have an emotional attachment with food which I thought this would address and it doesn't.
It also talks about smoking and alcohol both of which I have given up in the past, problem is you don't die if you give them up, but you do if you stop eating.
The tips are basically mindful eating.
Save your credits and don't bother buying.

Changed my life
I started this book in December 22nd after a friend recommended it. I was skeptical but thought I’d listen to it. Over night my relationship with food changed. Over Xmas I didn’t comfort eat. I didn’t eat any treats, cakes or even mince pies. And never felt deprived or reliant on will power! It just seemed normal not to want it.
For anyone who feels shackled to comfort food; this is the book to release you. Be open minded. Listen to it all. Don’t skip any. And don’t try and combine plans and you will love it!

I get it, but still
Why the constant preaching on smoking? I get the analogy but it's waaaay overused. Also, what's the point of the witchy narration? She sounds like a smoker, too - which is weird when she speaks about smoking 99% of the time. Half of the book is mainly "Easy Way is better than x" --- well then, prove it, stop comparing and talk about your damn Way. Good-ish info but all of these things made me want to scream

I find the narrator irritating, the content slightly patronizing,yes it is common sense and perhaps I was expecting more but it’s fair to say I struggle to listen to this/ my perspective hasn’t expanded or changed /I don’t understand the urge to overeat better and I’m itching to return this title

Where’s the advice?
There is only really one message in this book: “you have been brainwashed to think junk food is pleasurable, but it isn’t, so stop eating it and you’ll feel better”. That it, repeated over and over for 6 hours.
The book constantly dangles the “easy way method” as the solution to stopping yourself from emotional eating but I’m 4 hours in and I still have no idea what the “easy way method” actually is. There’s no practical advice for overcoming your impulses or urges simply because the book says “when you realise you’ve been brainwashed, you won’t have any urges”. Okay…?! It’s the equivalent of just saying the opposite to whatever someone says. “I feel sad” “no you don’t” “wow I’m fixed”.
The book also begins by apologising for comparing emotional eating to drug abuse but promises that it will only be lightly used to illustrate a point. Not true. It actually frequently refers to heroin addiction as a comparison to food addiction.
Weird book.

I can't believe how quickly it changed my thinking
It's one of those books I think everyone should read. The lessons within it are so obvious but I had never looked at my eating in that way before. I haven't finished it yet but already my whole approach to eating has changed because it completely makes sense. It's like a light bulb moment which not only makes you reflect on your own way of living but you start to see what others are doing too. I'm at risk of becoming a preacher of his ideas because they are so life changing ( I'm currently resisting as I don't want to be THAT person ha ha ha).
My only negative feedback really is that I think I would have preferred a man to narrate it, and just because (this maybe strange) I wanted to feel more like the author talking to me about his experiences as this this would make it more effective in my head, rather than me being aware that it was diluted but this second person reading his words.

Great book if its your first one
I believe that this book could be super helpful to many people, just like “easy way to quit smoking” was helpful to me. What I didn’t expect is for these two books to be quite so similar. Some concepts were even phrased exactly the same with words switched, e.g. eating vs smoking, food vs nicotine. I don’t regret listening to it though, because every bit of advise helps and yes, same principles can be applied to different types of addiction.

Very helpful
First of all, the review that I saw here makes me believe that the reviewer was having a rather cranky day.
I have been battling emotional eating for over 39 years. I have done tons of self help books and programs. You would think by now, that I've heard it all. This book helped me greatly and has reminded me of great things that I need to constantly remember to stay well. Read it and re-read it as much as you can

Felt a bit like snake oil or something
Unfortunately, this title did not speak to me at all. He repeats himself quite often and wastes far too many words on trying to convince you what his “method” will do for you while using sensational words such as “brainwashed” which made me think of a snake oil salesman. I just kept wondering where the method was.
I am already aware of all of the reasons given for emotional eating and the repercussions and was hoping for something more complex or mind changing than the information given in this book. I felt no revelations or enlightenment. In other words, the material did not seem to strike deep enough to stir any motivation in me that I have not already found in myself from my own learned knowledge of health, sugars, addiction, etc.
This book could possibly be a helpful stepping off point for someone who has never thought about their emotional eating and never before considered that they have a problem until now. I would only be able to recommend this title to someone with basically no knowledge of nutrition, physical or mental health because otherwise the information and arguments just felt repetitive and condescending.
Sad to say, my issues run deeper.
Off to continue the perpetual climb up the slippery slope of healing foods and killing foods.

Not Really Helpful
I quit smoking with the easy way to quit smoking and it was great. I thought this would be helpful for me the same way. Unfortunately this was very redundant and didn't have many new process and even each chapter in this book is posing the same ideas. I think they mentioned drug and cigarette addictions more than emotional eating. Id think it can be sumed up in two or three chapters but they drug it on for way too long. I felt like I replayed chapter 3 but it says I'm in chapter 4 so I feel like they are way to similar to even tell the difference. I'd be curious to break down the main points in each chapter to see if there are unique points or just repeated information stated differently.
I enjoyed the narrator because I am American, the way things were pronounced and words we don't use in America was fun to listen to.
