The ultimate in rigged research approved by the FDA. Aspartame: the FDA-approved poison used in placebos in double-blind MSG-is-safe studies.

To make sure the conclusion that MSG is harmless would be beyond reproach, glutamate-industry researchers guaranteed that subjects would react to placebos with the same reactions that are caused by MSG. They did that by using aspartame as the toxic ingredient in their placebos, which worked well for them because the aspartic acid in aspartame and the glutamic acid in MSG cause virtually identical reactions (as well as identical brain damage). Having set that up, glutamate-industry researchers (and the propaganda artists who quote them) will say “These people aren’t sensitive to MSG, they reacted to the ‘placebo’ too.”

Medical advice from Dr. FDA

When a non-doctor gives medical advice it’s called the “unauthorized practice of medicine.”  Yet the FDA does it all the time.  On the Internet, via Tweets, no less.

If you’re one of the 2.7 million Americans who have atrial fibrillation, you have an increased risk of a stroke.

Learn how you can reduce your risk of a stroke by taking a blood thinner.

Jack Samuels, co-founder of the Truth in Labeling Campaign, was able to reduce the times he had atrial fibrillation by eliminating the Manufactured free Glutamate (MfG) in hydrolyzed proteins, autolyzed yeast extract, MSG, etc. from his diet.

Calling MSG ‘umami’ doesn’t make it any less poisonous

Have you caught on yet?  Since the world is beginning to catch on to the fact that monosodium glutamate (MSG) causes brain damage along with migraine headaches, asthma, seizures and more, and neuroscientists are looking at the role it plays in neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and ALS, MS, autism, and depression, its producer Ajinomoto is busy (you might say shrewdly) referring to it by the pleasant-sounding name umami, while keeping its poisonous properties intact.

Here’s the latest “MSG-is-safe” advertisement, disguised as an article, received by the Truth in Labeling Campaign: https://www.popsci.com/science/umami-flavor/

7 Lines of Evidence: Line 6

Watch for our Seventh Line of Evidence next Tuesday

Stay tuned for Line 7 next Tuesday. There are Seven Lines of Evidence that lead inevitably to the conclusion that manufactured free glutamate (MfG), such as that found in hydrolyzed proteins and monosodium glutamate (MSG) is a well-disguised poison – a poison that may well be hidden in your very own pantry.

Food for thought but not for eating: ‘plant-based meat’

There seems to be no end to the production of designer “plant-based meat” – the so-called “alternative proteins” that eliminate animals from the equation by substituting brain-damaging amino acids. 

Imagine Meats appears to be the newest brand. It is said to have been created by Bollywood celebrity couple Riteish and Genelia Deshmukh, and just launched in Mumbai. According to the trade publication Food Ingredients First, the partnership also includes the U.S. company – and king of fake proteins — Archer Daniels Midland.

As typical of other “plant-based meat” products, they tout pea protein as their miracle ingredient, without telling what it is.

So just what is pea protein?  Pea protein is an amino acid stew made of hydrolyzed peas, manufactured in food processing plants. And although there will be some differences in individual products, each and every man-made/manufactured hydrolyzed pea protein ingredient will contain the three potentially toxic amino acids: aspartic acid, L-cysteine, and glutamic acid. You can read more about pea protein at http://truthinlabeling.org/blog/2019/08/26/hydrolyzed-pea-protein/

Below is a screenshot of an ADM Twitter post showing its pea protein plant in Enderlin, North Dakota.

Coming Thursday is the sixth Line of Evidence that leads inevitably to the conclusion that manufactured free glutamate (MfG), such as that found in hydrolyzed proteins and monosodium glutamate (MSG) is a well-disguised poison – a poison that may well be hidden in your very own pantry.

Yeast extract (the new favorite in processed foods) also contains toxic manufactured free glutamate (MfG) just as MSG does

Want to know the latest “market strategies” in making processed food yummy and lower in sodium?

Look no further than a just-out press release on the “salt substitute market size.” If we skip all the boring industry chatter and get right to the point, yeast extract is apparently the new darling of food companies who are making low sodium processed foods, according to this report.

The manufacturing methods in making yeast extract can vary, but the bottom line is that yeast extract contains toxic free glutamate – not as much toxic free glutamate as MSG – but still enough to do damage. That’s especially true when you think about how many sources of MfG there are in foods, snacks and beverages, and how easy it is to consume a large amount.

Our favorite line from this press release, telling why yeast extract is gaining in popularity over MSG is this one: It has replaced Monosodium Glutamate (MSG), which is a sodium salt for glutamic acid. MSG contains 90% of glutamate, which can cause nausea, weakness and headache. Yeast extract only contains 5% of glutamate, making it the more preferred option.

Perhaps this could be a good advertising campaign for a food product replacing MSG with yeast extract: New and improved! Now with fewer headaches, nausea and weakness than our original version that contained MSG!


Coming Next Tuesday is the third Line of Evidence that leads inevitably to the conclusion that manufactured free glutamate (MfG), such as that found in hydrolyzed proteins and monosodium glutamate (MSG) is a well-disguised poison – a poison that may well be hidden in your very own pantry.
