Dear Reader,

The ultimate solution to the threat of obesity is to re-engineer the modern environment so that eating well and being active each day are the societal norm, and the path of least resistance for us all. While many of us are working on that goal, I wouldnt recommend holding your breath!

What I would recommend instead is just what you are doing: reading this book. Because rather than waiting on the world to change, you can take matters into your own hands and change your lifestyle to control your weight and protect your health. And in that effort, you would be hard-pressed to find a more passionate, and compassionate guide, than my friend Jorge Cruise.

Jorge knows, as I do, that excess sugar in our diets is among the most important factors conspiring against our waistlines and our health. Too much sugar means increased risk of weight gain, obesity, hormonal imbalance, diabetes, heart disease, and even cancer. In The Belly Fat Cure, Jorge puts this threat in his crosshairs to help defend you from it.

Jorge knows about the challenge of weight loss and control, because he has confronted and overcome that challenge himself. And he knows that for guidance to be of any real use to you, you have to be able to follow it. In
