When this award-winning husband-and-wife team discovered that they each had sugar in their family history, they were inspired to trace the globe-spanning story of the sweet substance and to seek out the voices of those who led bitter sugar lives. The trail ran like a bright band from religious ceremonies in India to Europe's Middle Ages, then on to Columbus, who brought the first cane cuttings to the Americas. Sugar was the substance that drove the bloody slave trade and caused the loss of countless lives but it also planted the seeds of revolution that led to freedom in the American colonies, Haiti, and France. With songs, oral histories, maps, and over 80 archival illustrations, here is the story of how one product allows us to see the grand currents of world history in new ways. Time line, source notes, bibliography, and index included.

I love Dr Jen products
Item Package Quantity: 1, Item Package Quantity: 1
This is my favorite dry mouth gel that I’ve tried. I sleep with my mouth open and take medication at night that causes dry mouth so I have zero saliva during sleep. This gel has helped the most. Sometimes I wake up in middle of night and my mouth will still be dry so I reapply. The taste is very mild , I love that it has nano hydroxyapatite as I have gerd and like the extra enamel support.

Because of cancer, my mouth does not produce saliva at night while I'm sleeping. This product helps a lot, it could have a more spearmint taste, but it works

I had high hopes for this, but sadly, it fell short. I have to wear a CPAP mask at night & the dry mouth is just one of the things I hate about it. I saw this, read the reviews & decided to give it a try. I used it per the directions, but it really did nothing to alleviate the dry mouth. I'm giving it 2 stars because it doesn't taste bad, but that's the only good thing I can say about this.
