Good book for health and nutrition
This book cites the scientific research and explains it to a layperson. By doing this, the author then is able to create a plan to transition to a healthy diet and lifestyle. She uses her life experiences of an injury forcing her to cut back exercising. Being a little older, I can easily relate with the exercise reduction. Overall, a really good book on nutrition and health.

I did learn a few good pointers
This book has a lot of useful information about weight loss. Some are well known, and some are relatively new ways to approach weight loss.

Very well researched and very logical
There is a huge bibliography which I appreciate that it's so well researched. The requirements are logical and she makes it easy to create your own plan. There are summaries and to-do lists. it's a great book. if you are looking for recipes you won't find them here.

This book could extend your life and even more importantly improve the quality of your life.
In life, there is nothing more important than having good health.You might be lucky enough to take health for granted for a while, but at some point, it might catch up with you, and once you lose good health you realize how important it is.Following the advice in this book brings you better health. While you hopefully are familiar with some of thing things covered, you will also be able to pick up a number of critical health tips that you were not familiar with.All it takes is a few changes in your diet, and maybe adding a supplement or two, and your health can have a dramatic improvement. This book gives you those changes and suggests some supplements so you might find one or more that you want to try.Another thing I like is the author goes over some of her challenges in life, and how she overcame and worked through them. We all have challenges, setbacks, etc., and knowing this information makes the author more relatable and believable. In other words, it shows she is human and suffers through some of the same issues that readers might be having.As you age and realize health is your most important asset, and you are searching for ways to improve your health, this book will help you improve your most important asset.

Loose weight without diet and exercise? Seems to good to be true but….
Insulin resistance and hormones are the key! Fatty liver and diabetes are robbing people of quality of life and eventually causing diabetes and worse. Read (or listen) to this book over and over to get your brain to think properly and your actions will follow.Like the author I was an avid athlete. In my case regularly mountain biking thousands of feet up the mountains, kiteboarding, snow skiing, playing tennis and pickleball, hiking, etc. Suddenly in my 50’s I tore my meniscus walking through the parking lot on a warm sunny day.The MRI revealed severe osteoarthritis – the doctors explained that I had worn out my joints! Thus the Dr’s advised eliminating most of my favorite activities!Triya Redberg’s book Sweet surprise was sweet indeed! Now I was able to get my weight back to normal without the activities I could do no longer participate in . The battle for better weight and health was by changed by the way I think. Although the physical therapists got me back on my feet and the Dr’s diagnosed the causes which damaged my body. The money spent to learn the information in Triya’s book was less expensive and created the results for weight loss and a more balanced life.My advice is to give it a go… the expense is so much less than even a single visit to a doctor… yet the information gained more balanced and helpful in one’s day-to-day life.

Reading Sweet Surprise could well extend your lifespan (and decrease your waist span)
We all know the American diet and Western diets in general contain too much sugar, too much processed food, too many processed seed oils. And we should know that these contribute to the various degenerative diseases that are also associated with aging, ranging from diabetes, to cancer, to heart disease and Alzheimer's. And indeed these dietary errors lead many to higher BMI indices and obesity.Sweet Surprise packs a wealth of information especially around the topic of sugar in all its forms, but also in treating types of fats, and in providing an exercise regimen. It is extremely thoroughly researched, and as such you will have to plow through a lot of biomolecular names. Do that and you get to the benefits. The layout and inclusion of tables helps you get to the bottom line, which is finding foods that are health-positive, such as those rich in a desired nutrient, e.g. resveratrol or flavonols.Although focussed on sugar, this may be the most complete nutrition book I have ever read because of the comprehensive coverage of how insulin works, the discussion of fats and oils, and the broad treatment of antioxidants. It also discusses interval fasting and various fad diets such as keto.There is a high probability that implementing the recommendations in Sweet Surprise and changing your diet, will extend your lifespan.

I love this book and you will too!
I read this book and it will give you the best Return on Investment because it will give you the best health and best mind.I have detoxed from sugar, and now eat a rainbow to get my sweets. My colors include yellow (bananas), red (apples), orange (citrus), blue (berries) and there is no color white (sugar) in my delicious rainbow.When humans evolved in "caveman" times, there was no sugar in their cave pantry. This book is based on nutrition science, and it provides an extensive bibliography of scientific papers at the end.
