What Potential Brain Toxins Are Added to YOUR Food?

MSG (monosodium glutamate) is used as a preservative and flavor enhancer in countless processed foods. But while it works enhancing your food’s flavors it is also at work doing potential damage to your brain and body.

MSG is a excitotoxin, a type of chemical transmitter that allows brain cells to communicate .The problem is that excitotoxins can literally excite your brain cells to death. Aside from harming your brain, MSG has also been linked to eye damage, headaches, fatigue, disorientation and depression.

If we all knew how toxic MSG is I doubt anyone would actually consciously ingest this toxin.It is critical for our long term health to investigate the potential toxic effects and get better educated.Many times the problem results from eating processed foods or eating in a restaurant where you have virtually no control of what is added to your food before you eat it.

If you are ever going to Take Control of Your Health you will need to take responsibility for ALL the food you eat and be very conscious of avoiding this toxin in the processed foods you purchase or the restaurants you frequent most.

Unless of course you don't mind losing your brain cells.

If you don't believe this then you clearly have not watched Dr. Blaylock's (retired neurosurgeon) lecture on MSG.

Children are most at risk from MSG. The blood brain barrier, which keeps toxins in the blood from entering the brain, is not fully developed in children. MSG can also penetrate the placental barrier and affect unborn children as well. Nonetheless, most major brands of infant formula contain some processed free glutamic acid (a form of MSG).

It is very difficult to really know whether MSG (monosodium glutamate) is in your food, because it goes by so many aliases. To avoid ingesting this toxic additive, you’re best off choosing fresh, unprocessed foods. But becoming familiar with the hidden names of MSG can also help you determine what foods to eat.
