You will often find products with the inscription “natural aroma” or “herbal aroma” and you will not even suspect that behind this the notorious MSG is hiding. Monosodium glutamate or sodium glutamate E621 is a additive that is often find in many consumer goods. This additive is a toxin and allergen, and the effects of its frequent consumption can be numerous. In his book “Medical Medium”, Anthony William talks about this additive as one of the most dangerous for human health, that is hiding under various names. Sodium glutamate can be found under the names: glutamic acid, gelatin, calcium caseinate, texture protein, sodium caseinate, yeast extract, hydrolysed protein, hydrolysed corn gluten, natural aroma …

Poisoning with MSG after a while takes on a cumulative effect and results in various illnesses. It comes to the brain tissue where it can cause inflammation and swelling, kill thousands of brain cells, disrupt electrical impulses, weaken neurotransmitters, burn neurons, make you feel shaken and upset. Some of the body’s reactions to MSG are: migraine, vomiting, diarrhea, asthma attack, skin rashes, heart palpitations, panic attacks, depression, breathlessness, balance problems, allergic symptoms, facial flushing, mood swings, behavioral disorders (children and teenagers), mental confusion, prostate and urinary problems, lesions in the mouth, depression. It weakens and hurts the central system. This amino acid acts stimulatively on neurotransmitters in our brain and is used as a “flavor enhancer”.

If you haven’ t, start reading labels and getting information about the food you enter into your body. Try to eat as little processed food as possible during the day, and to increase intake of  food in its original form. It would be the best if you eat in greater amount raw fruits and vegetables, if possibly- organic. You can try to plant something if you have the opportunity to do so, because then you will always know with certainty what kind of food you are consuming.

I have broaden my perspective by reading various literature on this topic and there has always been a variety of views and opinions, from those that meat is unnecessary to those that it is highly important. There are those that tell us it is enough to take only raw food-fruits and vegetables, and also those that are telling how cooked food is irreplaceable and mandatory if we want to be sure that we have killed all pathogens and bacteria. Since I’m not someone who likes to go to extreme, I’ve always tried to find balance in everything and to find what will suit my sensibility when it comes to food. One thing is for sure in this matter and all the supporters of different types of foods have always agreed about one thing- we should eat organic food.

Organic food does not include pesticides and artificial fertilizers and doesn’t contain genetically modified organisms and therefore best suit the needs of human (and any other organism). Including organic food in my family’s nutrition, I was always sure that the quality of what they ate was the best, because it is food in its original form without any add-ons, colors, flavors and everything else …

That always kept me calm when I was unsure whether I’ve chosen the best way of nutrition for my family. I always try to stick to this course when it comes to food. Again, I’m not a saint, so here and there we make some excursion with food that does not belong to this category, but i try to buy organic products most of the time and I feel calm because I know that there is no mistake with it.

You have to admit that the food topic is very important in our lives and I suppose for majority of us good part of the day passes in thinking of what to eat, that it is nutritious and tasty enough. When the decision falls on organic food, I’m sure you are hitting both of these categories.
