Fwd: THE HIDDEN TRUTH



                                                                                        

 

The Hidden Truth 'MSG'

As a valued customer of Revolution foods, we have issued today's newsletter to raise awareness of a chemical added to foods that is highly addictive and harmful to health over time. This is knowledge unknown by the masses, we urge you to read below and spread the information to family and friends.

Monosodium glutamate, 'MSG', is the sodium salt of glutamic acid. Glutamate is a naturally occurring amino acid found in nearly all natural foods.

Science has replicated the natural form to create a highly addictive flavour enhancer that food manufacturers are adding to many foods at an alarming rate. Companies don't have to legally inform customers MSG is present in their product, In fact, many hide MSG with ingredients that people may believe are healthy. We will provide a table of ingredients to help you to decipher food labels to help avoid MSG as much as possible.

MSG works like a drug, when ingested, nerve cells in the brain discharge an electrical impulse that acts as an excitatory neurotransmitter. MSG makes people crave for foods that have absolutely no nutritional value. We believe that if MSG was banned today, the obesity crisis gripping the western world could be solved.

The chemical is so powerful it suppresses undesirable flavour, bitterness and sourness in foods and can eliminate the tinny taste of canned food. It is used in many health products as a preservative under different labels.

Consumption of MSG is 300 times greater today than in 1950. A vicious circle has been created as Food Corporation's increase the amount of MSG added to food in competition with one another for profits. Over time MSG causes toxic accumulation and profits can be gained from a sick society. Pharmaceutical companies capitalise on this to specifically design drugs to decrease toxicity of MSG.

MSG will continually be added into the food chain. More and more people will have reactions or become ill. ADHD and autism are strongly linked with MSG. MSG will affect a child's behaviour so be aware of food labelling when deciding the food chosen for them. Other reactions include migraines, upset stomach, fuzzy thinking, diarrhoea, heart irregularities, asthma and mood swings.

Here we list left to right, the official classification of MSG. What it can be disguised as, also, the foods that will cause a reaction to people that are highly sensitive.

Fast foods and processed foods are the obvious foods to avoid when trying to cut MSG intake. MSG is almost impossible to eradicate because it is abundant in so many foods. Be aware, for example, that items such as organic almond milk will have this chemical hidden as maltrodextrin or your organic pasta sauces may contain acidity regulator (citric acid). If you are a vegetarian seek the alternative meat products with the least amount of Hidden MSG.

It's important to note that alot of soaps, shampoo's, hair conditioners and cosmetics contain MSG hidden as hydrolyzed, amino acids or proteins. Most sun blocks and insect repellents also contain MSG.

Thank you for taking the time to read this newsletter, Remember, Take your time to read the labels on products before you buy. Together we can make people more and more aware of how the food industry has been cleverly manipulated to fill the pockets of big companies at the expense of our health!!

IF YOUR FOOD DOESN'T COME FROM NATURE THERE'S A GOOD CHANCE IT IS BAD FOR YOU!!
