Sweet Poison

How the World's Most Popular Artificial Sweetener is Killing Us — My Story

by Janet Starr Hull

In Sweet Poison, Hull, a certified nutritionist, reveals disturbing facts about aspartame—facts hidden from the public since the 1970s-including hundreds of documents contradicting product safety and the disturbing reality that aspartame was originally approved as a drug—not a food additive. Hull, who discovered that aspartame poisoning was to blame for her life-threatening illness, tells her own gripping story as well as the experiences of children, pilots and others who have suffered seizures, strokes, blindness and deformities because of their use of aspartame and unveils startling evidence of a cover-up.

"Hull's story exposes the lethal truth about aspartame poisoning and the greed of individuals and corporations that put personal profit ahead of public safety."
— Health Foods Business

"A must read for anyone consuming food or drinks containing aspartame...it might save your life."
— Midwest Book Review

"Both a personal account of a journey to hell and back, and a stern warning about the severe risks associated with consuming aspartame."
