Food Additives and Health: The Case Against MSG

While I was in medical school, I did research under a March of Dimes grant on MSG (monosodium glutamate), a common food additive. Back then, then damage we saw in rats was reversable IF you stopped giving it to them.

However the case against its use in man is mounting, including one that strongly suggest it has negative metabolic effects and leads to thyroid dysfunction and obesity.

Here’s a clip of a video by Dr. Blaylock on MSG, what problems it can cause and how it is added to your food disguised as something else.

Tainted Dog Food Victims Get Settlement

It only seems like a few months ago we were wogshepardrking to save my nurse’s dog’s  life. He was exposed to tainted dog food; food that was subsequently removed from store shelves.  She couldn’t remember the brand. But she still recalls the vigil she stood over her dog. Her vet didn’t know if the dog would make it. However after adding a natural green food product to the dogs treatment regimen, he perked up and is alive today.

There were a lot of dogs and cats that got sick and died due to  contamination of an ingredient imported from China. That shouldn’t surprise anyone. Chinese products have been getting a lot of front page exposure late. There were headlines due to toxins in various

big pig I’ve been following this story for the past few weeks.

11 workers in a Minnesota pork processing plant have come down with a strange neurological ailment which is said to be due to inhaling pig brains. One stated that she’s gotten progressively weaker over the 15 years she’s worked there…but never thought that it was due to the brains.

“You asked for it, you’ve got it.”

I get asked all the time about various health and wellness issues, usually centering on ailments, how to treat them, and what I recommend. Just the other day, a couple of my friends put the screws to me, so to speak. Heck, they didn’t even know I had a website – “Hello…I’ve only had a site up continuously since 1996”.

That comment is for them. But they had a valid point…a truly valid point.

I come across SO many good sites that offer unique products and services that I’m testing, want to test or just want to LOG to come back and try later…especially so I won’t lose them before I can share them with you.

MOSQUITOES!

Drat, I swear I can hear them at the door, sharpening their chompers, just waiting until I come out to feast.
