MSG...Obesity, Food Addiction, and Bad Health
Eating out as well as eating boxed or canned foods is
commonplace today. Over the last thirty or forty years fast food
restaurants have sprung up on every corner. And almost everyone
eats at one of these quickie restaurants at least once or twice
a week. But, at what cost to the body and the mind!
There are many ingredients in today's food that are unnatural,
keep food fresh, make foods tasty and also cause disease. One
such ingredient is MSG...Monosodium Glutamate.
Whether you consider yourself health-conscious or not, it would
benefit you and your family to have information on this
additive. Making healthy choices and taking appropriate action
can save you or a loved one, a slow poisoning via our food
supply.
Tests run on mice and rats that have been injected with MSG show
that this ingredient tripled the amount of insulin in the
pancreas, causing the rats to become obese. Could ingesting this
ingredient act the same on humans? MSG has not only been linked
to obesity but also to Diabetes, Migraines, Autism, ADHD,
Depression, and Alzheimer's.
What's that old milk commercial slogan...it does a body good. In
this case...Not!
Go to your cupboard and check to see just how many of your
favorite foods have MSG on the label. If not MSG then look for
Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein, which is just another name for
Monosodium Glutamate. You'll be shocked...amazed...perplexed
even! How could we have this ingredient in our food supply!
Is MSG a preservative? NO! We can find no reference that
this
ingredient has any value, other than to make food appealing and
ADDICTING to the consumer. It simply makes you eat more...and
more...and more! How clever! We do have an obesity epidemic in
this country and generally, we wonder why. Could it at least be
partially attributed to this food additive? It's definitely
something to consider!
The amount of MSG in our food has increased over the 50 years
since it's introduction into the food supply. The FDA has set no
limits to how much of it can be added to food. Is it harmful to
humans? Well...think about it. What foreign substance isn't! How
much can our bodies handle anyway? Not just MSG...but the
multitude of other substances, like nitrates, aspartame,
hydrogenated fats and the list goes on.
But if you are still unsure, go to pubmed.com and search MSG.
That way you can come to your own conclusions.
You know how the system works today...Money Talks! You won't
hear this type of information on TV for obvious reasons. But we
must educate ourselves and empower our family and friends.
Spread the word: "It does a body Good!"
MSG...a substance to stay away from...on your search for TRUE
HEALTHY LIVING!
