It worked for me. by Todd Johnson 5 Stars
November 09, 2009
I have been on the low-fructose diet for 2 months and have lost 9 pounds - from 194 to 185. What I really lost was the belly that bulged over my belt. Now I have a flat stomach and it's amazing how much of a difference that makes in how I feel about myself.

We may never realize the importance of 'returning to nature and the basics' but this book gives you an insight into what you are consuming and why YOU may becoming unhealthy simply because of the foods you eat that contain high-fructose corn syrup.
