How Safe Is MSG?

Here are four good rules to follow when purchasing processed foods

The more salty a processed food is, the more likely it is to contain MSG or free glutamate.

The more processed a food is, the more likely it is to contain MSG or free glutamate: powdered stuff that used to be food is likely to have added MSG because the original flavor has been degraded.

The more ingredients in a packaged food, the more likely MSG is present. Read labels carefully if a food has more than five ingredients.

Do not trust something simply because it is in a health food store and the label states it is natural or even organic.

Does MSG cause the following

Autism, High Blood Pressure, Obesity, Type II Diabetes, Depression, Tumors, Asthma, Brain Functions, Endocrine System, Hearing & Vision, Cardiovascular and much more.
