What we know about MSG toxicity and where it is hidden in food comes from discussions with researchers and food technologists, reading food encyclopedias, books, and published articles, and from MSG-sensitive people and the health care professionals who work so valiantly to help them.

Following are links to selected comments from consumers:

"For the past two years I have been healthy! I have no vertigo today; it is
completely gone!"

"We thought [petit mal seizures] had something to do with his Diabetes...until I discovered your website"

"2 weeks and no rash! I am so much happier and relieved... THANK YOU!!!"

"...I need a list of foods that don't contain msg."

"My husband had to call the rescue squad, I then passed out."

"...lawsuit would have an enormous and positive impact on the food industry"

Four years ago I stated having dizziness, headaches and feeling slightly off balance.

"So now we know that her allergies are not just allergies that they have tested her for." They're MSG.

"...she was told she could not join the Army, or any other branch of the military"

"I have been able to get my migraines from 10 a month town to three or four a month by eliminating MSG, my problem is I don't know all of the ways it is hidden."

"I have been following your advice to avoid MSG and processed foods and my attacks of tacky cardia (severe heart racing and feinting) have not occurred in a month! Thank you thank you thank you!"

"I have always felt there is a connection between MSG toxicity, Hypoglycemia, and my Fibromyalgia symptoms."

"After so many years of seeing literally hundreds of different doctors and hundreds of different types of medications, we have come to find out now that this terrible monster called "MSG" is to blame."

"My 5 year old son's sudden onset of chronic hives..."

"My head used to spin..."

"I suspected MSG, in fact, but there were so many times I was stricken without having had MSG (or so I thought) that I discounted it. It wasn't until I learned the many guises of MSG from your web site that it all finally came together and I found relief."

"The makers...told me that it does not contain MSG, but the ingredients include whey protein isolate and whey protein concentrate as well as 'natural flavors.'"

"I believe I have figured out what has been happening to me..."

"I have blurred vision, extreme tightness of legs and feet (almost feeling as if my skin will burst) and numbness and tingling of most of my extremities, in particular my feet and legs, as well as severe edema (my toes look like shiny sausages!)"

"The soaked corn had spent 18 hours fermenting - generating msg"
