Half the Sugar, All the Love by Jennifer Tyler Lee

This product was recommended by Jennifer Tyler Lee from 52newfoods

In Half the Sugar, All the Love: 100 Easy, Low-Sugar Recipes for Every Meal of the Day (Workman; January 7, 2020), healthy food advocate and award-winning cookbook author Jennifer Tyler Lee and Anisha Patel, MD, MSPH, Associate Professor of Pediatrics at Stanford University and leader of Stanford’s pediatric sugar research program, show parents how to avoid hidden sugars while still being able to make delicious, quick, flavorful dishes the whole family will love. Delving into topics such as how to use fruits and vegetables to sweeten meals in a healthy way (for example, you can make brownies using sweet potatoes), debunking sugar myths (honey is not healthier), and where hidden sugar lurks and how to avoid it, it also includes a bounty of recipes even the pickiest eater will love, from Double Chocolate Layer Cake to BBQ Chicken Pizza as well as a myriad of sauces and condiments such as Creamy Ranch Dressing, Quick-Cook Tomato-Basil Sauce, and Three-Ingredient Strawberry Jam. There’s even a recipe for “Newtella” – which has a fraction of the sugar its store-bought equivalent has. An eye-opening, informative, and practical guide for the busy modern parent, it’s the first of its kind to be filled with actionable expert advice alongside delicious, kid-tested recipes the whole family will love.

In the Ultimate Volumetrics Diet, Dr. Rolls teaches you to replace processed and added sugar with whole food fruits and sweet nuts. By eating natural sugars in fruits and nuts you keep the healthy fibers, water, and nutrients that fill you up with less calories and lower blood sugar spikes.

I suggest this book for anyone who would like to get rid of sugar in their diet in the context of a ketogenic (low-carb, high-fat) diet. What I like most about it is that it teaches you how to satisfy your sweet cravings without sugar through keto-friendly desserts.
