By completely eliminating sugar, as much as possible, for a specific length of time, our bodies gradually reduce the craving for sugar. Some programs recommend as little as twenty-one, ten, even three days without sugar. This book, however, will focus on a thirty-day detox, based on the premise that it takes more than three, ten, or twenty one days to completely recalibrate your system and your taste buds. After these thirty days, you will no longer be a slave to sugar, and you can more thoroughly embrace a lifetime without cravings and sugar-related health problems.
