diseases.

awareness, so that these refined sugars/ added sugars do not corrupt or damage
the health of our children and future generations.

What inspired you when writing Added
Sugars, the Slow Poison?
During
the process of writing the book Added sugars the slow poison, I
happened to listen many videos related to added sugars and their shocking
& harmful effects on various parts & major functions of our
body. I was very specifically inspired by the videos of 3 doctors.
They
are:
1.
Sugar the bitter truth – by Dr. Robert
Lustig
2.
Sugar toxicity- by Dr. Eric berg
I would strongly suggest all my readers to go
through the videos of these 3 doctors Dr.Robert Lustig, Dr.Eric berg, Dr.Aseem
Malhotra. They have helped me a lot to understand many interesting
scientific facts about these sugars, which we even as educated adults are
totally unaware of.
Due to attractive marketing strategies adopted by the food industry, we are unable to see the large
amounts of added sugars we are consuming every day.
we have
overlooked the dangers of the added sugars and spoiled the health of our
generation, especially our children. Time has come to enlighten ourselves with
sufficient knowledge about these added sugars and protect our families and
society.
When did you decide to become a writer?
I was a
voracious reader right from childhood, read children's books, animated series,
short stories, detective stories, humorous and witty short stories. Reading
inspired me a lot to write, express and share my own personal experiences. I
found happiness in writing and sharing my words, thoughts & my creative
world to my readers.
It was
when my English teachers, my friends in my school and college days appreciated
and encouraged my short stories, I realized that I should become a writer.
When writing Added Sugars, the
Slow Poison did anything stand out as particularly challenging?
Yes! I
did face some challenges while writing 2nd chapter. The 2nd
chapter deals with scientific explanation about how Glucose and Fructose effect
our liver and pancreas.
A
beginner would find it little difficult
to follow these scientific terms. Therefore, I put my best effort with block
diagrams. I have also quoted and recommended my readers to watch related videos
so that they can easily visualize and grasp the concept.
What do you like to do when not writing?
Apart
from writing, I love to spend my free time in gardening, cooking delicious
food, listening to good music. I love Hibiscus and Roses, so I spend a lot of
time taking care of these plants.
