The Sugar Busters Diet was founded on the idea that sugar, not fat, leads to obesity. Proponents believe that too much sugar consumption causes an increase in insulin, which can lead to weight gain. The diet is not necessarily a low-carb diet as it does not eliminate carbohydrates. However, most carbs are prohibited since they contain sugar. Try the Sugar Busters Diet if you are comfortable with foregoing all sugar-containing foods.
