SomerSweet is Coming!

We have received hundreds of e-mails asking when SomerSweet will be available. Please know that I am doing everything possible to bring you this phenomenal product as quickly as I can. Our new launch date for SomerSweet is scheduled for November on Home Shopping Network and here at SuzanneSomers.com. At that time my new book will also be at stores, SOMERSIZE DESSERTS, which has thirty fabulous desserts all made with SomerSweet.

While the final details are being taken care of for SomerSweet, I am busy creating a variety of Somersize foods. In September I'll premiere my fabulous SomerSweet Cheesecake on HSN. The first SomerSweet Cheesecake will be an assorted cheesecake so you can taste all four fabulous flavors: NY Style, Chocolate, Chocolate Swirl and Raspberry Swirl. This is the richest, most delicious cheesecake I have ever tasted; and because it's made with SomerSweet, it's guilt free!

SomerSweet is like a miracle to me. It is the most exciting product I have ever brought to the American public. It has an incredible taste. No after-taste, just a clean sweet taste that will enhance the flavor of anything you want to taste sweet.

When I was first developing SomerSweet I looked at a product called lo-han; but I found that, like Stevia, I was detecting an aftertaste when I tried to cook with it. Then I was introduced to a blend, including sweet fibers, that tastes incredible and holds up beautifully in the cooking process. It's like a dream come true! I have never had such success making desserts without sugar, until now.

With SomerSweet, you can heat it, you can freeze it, you can boil it, bake it, fry it, broil it and toast it. You can make delicious cakes, puddings, tarts, ice cream and more. You can even caramelize it to make caramel sauce, caramel pudding and a perfect caramelized top for crème brulee! All of these sinful desserts are now Somersized because of this wonderful, new SomerSweet! (For those of you who have the early prints of Eat, Cheat, and Melt the Fat Away, I list lo-han as the key ingredient of SomerSweet. In subsequent printings the correct ingredients are listed.)

Now you really can have your cake, and eat it too! SomerSweet contains no refined sugar, and it's a great source of fiber. You know, fiber… the stuff your body needs anyway? Well, SomerSweet gives you the fiber your body needs with the sweetness your taste buds crave! Most of us do not get enough fiber in our daily diets. The average person consumes only 9 grams of fiber per day. A good way to calculate your recommended fiber intake is to take your age and add 5. That's how many grams of fiber you should eat daily.

The wonderful thing about SomerSweet is that it won't start the craving cycle that sugar does. We're all familiar with the sugar highs and lows. When you eat sugar, your blood sugar rises. To balance the blood sugar, your body secretes the hormone, insulin (the fat storing hormone). Insulin balances the blood sugar, and decides if the sugar should be burned as fuel or stored as fat. Often, your body over-secretes insulin, which lowers your blood sugar even below it's starting point. It is at this point that we hit that familiar "sugar-low" and, once again, reach for something sweet or caffeinated to perk us up. This type of sugar binging creates a craving cycle that keeps us reaching for sweets all day long. With real sugar, one cookie, or one piece of cake is never enough. One chocolate is never enough.

After you eat a dessert with SomerSweet, you won't be wishing for more an hour later, because SomerSweet will not send your insulin levels soaring! Controlling your insulin is the key to losing weight. Food cannot be stored as fat without the presence of insulin. That is why when we Somersize, we can feast on foods, as long as they do not trigger a big insulin response. Now, with my new SomerSweet we can also enjoy delicious desserts! It feels so great to eat one SomerSweet Chocolate Truffle in the afternoon and not feel the need to go back for two, three or four more! I truly feel satisfied after one.

SomerSweet is a revolution! You're gonna love it! Make sure you're registered and I'll keep you posted with updates. I promise it will be worth the wait.


Sincerely,



Suzanne
