Why I avoid Asian Food

[Anonymous]

A cut or piece of bacon. I guess it's an Aussie or British term?

So, it's a single slice of bacon?



My husband's family is from Holland..



They like bacon and eggs..



And meatball soup.

MSG is naturally occurring and found in foods such as tomatoes, potatoes, mushrooms, Parmesan cheese, etc.



It's been used for over a hundred years in food.

 Gultumatic acid is a naturally occuring protein found in tomatoes, potatoes, etc. and when it cooked it breaks down and becomes glutamate. Adding salt stabilizes the  broken down protein. MSG is not naturally occurring. It is a artificial combination of glutamate and salt.

Only she's not correct.

The actual commercial MSG most of us are familiar with is NOT naturally occurring. It is derived and created thru a fermentation process. What you are confusing it with is glumatic acid which is a naturally occurring protein found in vegetables and sea kelp.

It looks the same yet different from the bacon I have bought.

You just contradicted yourself.  You said foods are rich is glumatic acid yet quote "foods rich is glutamate..."  Glutamate itself is found in foods.  If you don't believe me, read your own quote again.



Glutamate itself is also one of the most prevalent neurotransmitters in the body and is involved in cognitive function and memory.



There is also currently no scientific evidence that supports MSG as being harmful.  Scientists have not been able to replicate issues from MSG in a scientific setting.

This thread is like a science class being taught by Renee and RW.

So why must I violently vomit after eating items with added MSG, RW? For real.

How can I answer that?  I can only report what science says.

Science can say a lot yet little on any given subject.



Have you ever investigated the links between Multiple Sclerosis and Glutamate Blockers, RW?

Can't say I have.  I'll read up on it right now.

Interesting but lacking in a concrete connection to MS itself.
