Empower Your Family to Reduce Sugar
Most parents don’t realize just how much sugar and sweeteners have crept into their children’s diets and the many ways this impacts their growth and development. Sugarproof gives parents the tools to raise kids who self-regulate sugar and enjoy the pleasures of good food and good health.
Sugarproof Provides Simple and Sustainable Solutions
Most of us know that sugar can wreak havoc on adult bodies, but few realize how uniquely harmful it can be for children. The damage can begin early in life, resulting in fatty liver disease, prediabetes, obesity and elevated risk for eventual heart disease, not to mention behavioral, emotional, and learning problems.
Sugarproof busts myths about the various types of sugars and sweeteners and helps families identify and replace highly sweetened foods and drinks in their diets. Sugarproof is not about eliminating all sugar but instead is focused on realistic family-based solutions to reduce sugar consumption to a healthy level.
With a 7-day and a 28-day challenge to help families right-size sugar, along with many simple strategies and recipes without added sugars or sweeteners, Sugarproof teaches parents to raise informed and empowered kids who can set their own healthy limits without feeling restricted.

"Dr. Michael Goran trained as a biochemist and started out his research journey as a human physiologist. But as he realized the primacy of diet in chronic disease, he has morphed into a pediatric nutrition research powerhouse. He has helped elucidate how dietary sugar can be uniquely problematic even for babies, and how it can derail the process of healthy growth and development. His work has provided insightful understandings on how to translate research findings into effective ways for reducing sugar consumption in childhood."
