Jayne J. Jones

Jayne J. Jones is a lawyer, entrepreneur, author, and nationally recognized health advocate known as America's No Sugar Baker. After earning her law degree, Jones worked in state and federal government public policy roles and served as a college professor. She founded a government grant firm and a nonprofit chaperone travel service for individuals with intellectual disabilities, and has authored six books recognized with national and international awards. Her background in law, public policy, and entrepreneurship informs her expertise in health, wellness, and resilience.

Jones's transition to America's No Sugar Baker began following a significant health crisis. On her 44th birthday, she was diagnosed with severe diabetes after an emergency room visit, experiencing a temporary loss of eyesight and a critical risk of stroke. Through adopting a sugar-free lifestyle, Jones regained her health, lost 60 pounds, and restored her vision. This experience inspired her to transform traditional recipes into sugar-free alternatives, focusing on diabetes management, healthy baking, and nutrition.

Her personal journey evolved into a widely followed blog and brand, featuring hundreds of television and print interviews, more than 250 original recipes, and a product launch on QVC with multiple sellouts. Jones published two cookbooks, "The No Sugar Baker's Cookbook of Healthy Living & No Regrets" and "No Sugar Baker's Cookbook of Healthy Living & Still Zero Regrets," which serve as resources for sugar-free baking and healthy living. Her products, including OMG Cinnamon Rolls, Hey Pumpkin, Meet Pie, and Mic Drop Chocolate Pecan Pie, are available in grocery stores and have demonstrated the appeal of sugar-free desserts. Jones also collaborates with Albertsons Bakery to expand access to sugar-free baked goods.

Jones's advocacy deepened after surviving complications from kidney stone surgery, including cardiac arrests and sepsis shock. She educates foster families, children with special needs, and adults with disabilities on preparing nutritious, sugar-free meals, and leverages her legal and policy background to advocate for medically tailored meals in hospitals and care facilities.

As a keynote speaker, Jones addresses topics such as overcoming adversity, diabetes management, sugar-free living, and inclusion for special needs communities. Her work continues to influence the health and wellness industry, providing resources and support for individuals seeking to improve their nutrition and manage chronic health conditions.
