The most famous researcher in this field is probably Kathleen DesMaisons, Ph.D., author of a number of bestselling books on the subject, including Potatoes Not Prozac, Little Sugar Addicts: End the Mood Swings, Meltdowns, Tantrums, and Low Self-Esteem in Your Child Today, and Your Last Diet!: The Sugar Addict's Weight-Loss Plan. \u003cbr\u003eSimply by reading the titles of her books, you can see that over-consumption of sugar can affect both your weight and your state of mind.
