I was surfing a bloggers of sync list called
The Synchronicity and Semiotic List while wearing the above t-shirt and saw this entry called
"MSG on the Brain" by iAhuasca, so I took that as my que to check it out.
It was quite interesting and reminded me of a book I had purchased and was yet to read called Excitotoxins by Russell .L. Blaylock M.D.
and the excellent documentary Sweet Misery, which is about aspartame and MSG.
Crystalline Monosodium Glutamate is similar in appearance to Cocaine, crack, or heroin. Like other dangerous substances, it is processed from natural sources. |
Monosodium Glutamate MSG Health Dangers and Side Effects of Toxic Additives and Excitotoxins
A strange sequence of synchros here!My dad had parkinson's, but didn't use aspartame or msg. I suspect his illness was triggered by a long time exposure to an electrical transformer box that was 20 feet from his bedroom window. Not that the power companies would ever admit such a thing.
ReplyDeleteMSG is an additive,so it's in a lot of stuff that you wouldn't probably know it was in,like Chinese food,potato chips,noodles,tinned soups,cookies (especially chicken flavoured ones),etc.
ReplyDeleteAspartame is in just about all sugarless gum and candy,as well as all diet colas.
MSG is one of the things that puts me off Chinese take-aways. I guess, as with all things, moderation is the key, however boring that may be.
