Splenda®: Is It Safe Or Not?
In her recently published book, Splenda®: Is It Safe Or Not?, Dr. Janet Hull, PhD, reveals the scientific evidence which strongly suggests the chemical sweetener sucralose, also known as Splenda, may harm the body.
Dr. Hull’s new book reveals that Splenda research documents numbness of the hind legs in male rats and has negative effects on the livers, spleens and kidneys of laboratory animals. In addition, other research cites recurring laboratory results of infertility in male rats and gastrointestinal problems in pregnant rats fed Splenda.
Dr. Hull says, “Consumers are not being told the whole truth about the long-term dangers of using artificial chemical sweeteners. No one has considered the fact that chemical sweeteners may be at the root of many unexplained disease symptoms that puzzle your doctor.”
According to the research, Dr. Hull states, “Giving sugar-free chemicals to your children or using them during pregnancy may be harmful to a child’s emotional and physical maturation and to the normal development of a fetus.”
Dr. Janet Hull is an artificial sweetener expert and is also the author of Sweet Poison: How The World’s Most Popular Artificial Sweetener Is Killing Us – My Story, chronicling her gripping battle with a near-fatal disease caused by aspartame found in NutraSweet/Equal®. She is an OSHA certified engineer and has degrees in nutrition, environmental toxicology and geology.
The book is available nationwide on Amazon.com. Please visit http://www.issplendasafe.com for more information.
