SWEET POISON
PRAISE FOR SWEET POISON
“Sweet Poison is the remarkable story of a remarkable person. Janet determined that aspartame consumption was the probable cause of her affliction–and then proved it to all, including me, by its disappearance after avoiding this chemical. Unfortunately, most endocrinologists and journal editors refuse to believe or publish this phenomenon. Yet, ‘anecdotes’ such as this have paved the way for significant advances in medicine and science.”
–H.J. Roberts, M.D., F.A.C.P., F.C.C.P
“Now, years after my first encounter with aspartame, a significant number of my colleagues are becoming aware of the multiple problems with the drug and are using this knowledge in their diagnosis and treatment. This book will bring awareness to the general public alerting them to the problems associated with using aspartame.”
–James B. Hays, M.D., Federal Aviation Administration Designated Medical Examiner
“Sweet Poison reveals the truth a government agency (FDA) and giant artificial sweetener industry don’t want you to know—aspartame is toxic. Read it and learn. Then take action!”
–Mary Nash Stoddard, founder of Aspartame Consumer Safety Network
“I am very supportive of Jan’s efforts, and believe that she has chosen to fight a very important fight.”
–Erik Millstone, Science Policy Research Unit, Sussex University, England
“Sweet Poison is a provocative book documenting the author’s life threatening illness due to aspartame poisoning, and her search for the answers she desperately needed to overcome her illness. This is essential reading for those who value their health and wellness.”
–Dr. James R. Johnston, Director of American Health Science University and National Institute of Nutritional Education (Sole institution in the United States to award federally required Certification in Nutrition)
