- Learn from the Intelligent Sugar Expert: The series draws on the work of Dr Johannes Coy, the Intelligent Sugar Expert, whose discovery of the TKTL1 gene and research on sugar underpin the whole approach.
- Practical and flexible: Ideas you can apply to your own cooking and daily routine, at your own pace.
