MSG is a neutotransmitter normally found in the brain in parts per million/billion. When used as a food additive it is used by the tsp! This causes the brain to be flooded with the neurotransmitter, causing a host of problems including neonatal expsure leading to adulthood obesity and inflammation, liver inflammation and dysplasia, headache and pericranial muscle tenderness, and much more.
The most recognized one is MSG (monosodium glutamate), but there are many of them, and they go by many names. Labels that always indicate MSG inlude: Glutamate, Glutamic Acid, Gelatin, Monosodium Glutamate, Calcium Caseinate, Textured Protein, Monopotassium Glutamate, Sodium Caseinate, Yeast Nutrient, Yeast Extract, Yeast Food, Autolyzed Yeast, Hydrolyzed Protein, Hydrolyzed Corn Gluten, Natrium Glutamate.
Labels that often contain MSG or create MSG during prossessing include: Carrageenan, Maltodextrin, Malt Extract, Natural Pork Flavoring, Citric Acid, Malt Flavoring, Boullion, Broth, Natural Chicken Flavoring, Soy Protein Isolate, Natural Beef Flavoring, Ultra-pasturized, Soy Sauce, Stock, Barley Malt,Soy Sauce Extract, Whey protein concentrate, Pectin, Soy Protein, Whey protein, Protease, Soy Protein Concentrate, Whey protein Isolate, Protease Enzymes, Anything Protein Fortified, Flavors, Flavorings, Anything Enzyme Modified, Many Fermented Foods, Natural Flavors, Natural Flavorings, Anzymes anything, and the word "Seasonings."
Its a little daunting, but getting rid of this one will leave you feeling more focused, and healthier for sure!
Happy Health!
