When my publisher suggested the idea of Low Fat, Low Sugar, the aim was to write a book which would be helpful to two groups of people: those who, for reasons of health, had to cut down on the amount of fat they were eating, and those who, for the same reason, had to reduce their sugar intake. It was not until I began work on the book and started researching the subject that I began to understand how closely these two issues – our consumption of fat and sugar – are linked in the overall picture of a healthy diet. And as I studied the facts I realised that a diet low in fat and sugar is not only the way to ease – and perhaps even cure – certain diseases but it can also help prevent them occurring in the first place. In addition, following such a diet is a simple and effective way to feel positively healthy and full of energy whilst controlling your weight – even losing some if you need to. I hope therefore that this book will be useful to you, whether you have to change your diet for health reasons or want to make a positive life style change for a slimmer, healthier, happier you.

It doesn’t make much sense to cut down on the fats only to stoke up with the sugars. I believe that a truly healthy diet is not only low in fat but low
