My cousins, nieces and nephews are Asians and use MSG. Would you like their e-mails?
To be fair, here is another link that shows bad effects of MSG. Scroll down to the post by Kathryn, a toxicology major, rebutting the study and saying that the study refers to an experiment where the dosage used on the mice was equivalent to a cupful of salt. So ingestion at small traces is not bad. As with everything, excess is the culprit, in her words "Dose is the poison". What was concerning was her (Kathryn's) reference to other substances that have the same ingredient which we don't think of consuming in large quantities, e.g. mushrooms, strawberries...interesting read IMO...
EVERYONE is adversely affected by MSG. Some may notice it or realize that it is the MSG that is causing the problems they are having.
I think it is sad and disgusting that a person who is overweight or has maladies that they feel they need to take medications for will BRAG that MSG is not a problem for them.
MSG is a known Neurotoxin. Do not think for a second that you are not being affected by this poison.
Reactions to MSG is NOT classified as an allergy as a peanut allergy or hay fever is.
MSG is a chemical compound that is an exitotoxin with many of the same chemical properties as Aspartame and it's use has been attributed to Multiple sclerosis, arthritis, Lupus, Lou Gehrig's Disease and many cancers.
MSG is nothing like aspartame, that was a very old theory.
Also allergies to MSG is the same as any other allergy.
Please give me any information that states otherwise.
the pharmaceutical companies spend millions of dollars on lobbyists so they can have their killer chemicals approved BEFORE thorough testing has been done.
give me a break !
Lobbyist work for senators, representatives, etc. Not on the FDA.
The FDA doesn't vote on the subject.
The subject is MSG. The studies have been done and the results are in.
If you ingest Msg and Aspartame you will be ill. Your doctor will give you pills that will give you side affects at which time he (or she) will give you more pills. You will keep getting sicker and the doctor will tell you that what you have is hereditary and you will just have to live with it. You will complain about your HMO doctors and that you can't get good health care as you are picking up your three bags from the drive-through window.
Read the studies and follow the advice or stay sick and blame it on everyone else.
It's your decision !
Where are the result, show me any link to a study.
MSG has nothing to do with Aspartame, who told you that? that was an old myth, like saying BigFoot.
MSG will not get you ILL, unless you are allergic.
"Read the studies" where I don't see any...
I'm not a sucker. I am a forty seven year old chemist who has never needed or been on any kind of medication. I can do everything I could do when I was 19.
And I (unlike most Americans) don't have that gut that most do.
DON'T LOOK DOWN NOW !
I really tough that, you are a chemist and can't tell the difference between MSG and aspartame?
And a chemist that rely on studies and evidence.. where is your evidence that MSG is bad for your health?
