5.0 out of 5 stars One of the world's top Pediatritian's Words of Praise:, February 22, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Deadly Deception: Story of Aspartame : Shocking Expose of the World's Most Controversial Sweetener (Paperback)

" Get your patients and friends to read Deadly Deception - Story of Aspartame and then do what you can to stop the menace!

One of the opening pages of Deadly Deception - Story of Aspartame hit me: "80% of all complaints registered with the Food and Drug Administration [FDA] concern aspartame's adverse reactions." It is now reported that five deaths and at least 92 different symptoms have resulted from its use. The list includes neurological, dermatological, cardiac, respiratory . . . all the symptoms I have ever seen reported for food sensitivities, low blood sugar, Alzheimer's, Chronic Fatigue syndrome, amalgam-filling disease and methanol poisoning. The Searle Pharmaceutical Company has actually covered up or, at the very least, failed to report adverse reactions just so the FDA would allow this product to be used by millions worldwide." -- Beloved Pediatritian, Lendon Smith, M.D. in "The Facts"

1.0 out of 5 stars Unreadable collection of xeroxed newspaper articles, April 6, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Deadly Deception: Story of Aspartame : Shocking Expose of the World's Most Controversial Sweetener (Paperback)

Although the message may be important, this book is so poorly reproduced as to render it unreadable. It consists of bad xerox copies of newspaper articles by and about the author. All of the material is available on the internet in more readable form. It is repetitive, self-absorbed and quite unacceptable in its present form. If someone would re-type the newspaper articles so that they were readable or would just download the articles from the internet directly to print it would be worthwhile reading on this topic.

1.0 out of 5 stars What a load of rubbish!, February 28, 2000

By 

Peter K. Ellis (Delray Beach, Florida United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Deadly Deception: Story of Aspartame : Shocking Expose of the World's Most Controversial Sweetener (Paperback)

Stoddard has an axe to grind. Its one, I'd like to learn about;however this load of poorly reproduced newspaper articles proves nothing. Peer reviewed articles were often incomplete. Copy used is sometimes covered in the editor's markings. The book lacks a commentary. Sadly it does nothing for the cause of removing sweeteners from the market.
