Summary

From the overview: Overweight, tired and looking older than you actually are? Chances are that you're eating too much sugar. That's right, sugar. The beautiful, sweet and oh so tasty sugar. Whether it's organic, in the raw or from a packet, eating too much sugar can lead to everything from excess weight and tired looking skin to even some diseases. The average American consumes up to 31 pounds of added sugar a year, according to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Picture one of those 5 pound bags of sugar, now picture 6 of them. That's how much added sugar one person eats a year! A diet high in sugar, like the one found right here in the USA, causes an extreme inflammatory response in the body. It's this response that leads to everything from weight gain, fatigue, increase in fine lines and wrinkles and acne. Sugar is making us fat, lazy and ugly. The Sugar Rxis designed to reverse the damage we've done beginning with a 3 day Sugar Withdrawal program. These 3 days are tough, but with every bite and sip planned out so there is no problems with following the program. After the withdrawal phase is over, the real work begins with a 4-week plan to lose weight, look younger and feel better than ever. What makes The Sugar Rxunique is the combined approach with nutrition and skin care. With a nutritionist and a dermatologist working together to design this plan for you, we've created an inside-out and outside-in approach never done before to help you look and feel your best. In both of our practices we work with women complaining of their weight, premature aging and overall feeling of unwell. Brooke has been working on helping her clients change their diets for weight loss, energy levels and overall health and wellness. Patti sees on a regular basis women who are willing to pay huge numbers for quick fixes that will fail to deliver the results without a total diet and lifestyle change. By combining our expertise, The Sugar Rxis a sure fire way to help millions of women look and feel their absolute best. With a 3-day withdrawal plan, a 4-week menu, recipes, and tips for heading off sugar cravings wherever you are (and at your weakest), along with success stories from clients and suggestions for overall health and wellness from the inside out.
