This week Michelle is back with her ‘5 Simple Steps to Healthy Living’ series and in Step 2 is taking sugar - “The Sweet Deceiver” - to task.

Since the 1970’s, we have been constantly warned that we consume far too much sugar in our diets, but that hasn’t stopped us yet.

With its myriad of uses and addictive qualities, which are pushed on consumers by the food industry, it is no surprise that over 100 health conditions are directly related to the consumption of sugar.

Looking at the harmful impacts of sugar on physical and mental health, exploring its history, the process of its refinement, and its ubiquity in modern diets, Michelle leaves no stone unturned in her quest to help you cut down on sugar and live a more healthy life.
