- I am very careful about what I eat. Some would call me
picky or even compulsive. But, having learned from Dr. Russell Blaylock
and from personal experience, I avoid MSG. At least I try.
-
- I make my own veggie broth. (* Recipe below.) I cook
most of my own food. I avoid almost all processed foods.
-
- The problem is, I'm a TV reporter and on I'm on the road
a lot. Yesterday, I was very hungry and stopped at Vietnamese restaurant
in Aiea (Oahu) for lunch.
-
- I ordered stir fried vegetables with some tofu (GMO,
what can I say?) and rice.
-
- The order came. I ate. I intuitively felt poorly about
it, but I was stressed and busy and hungry.
-
- A few minutes after consuming this food, I started feeling
anxious. A good, healthy meal should not make you feel like you just drank
10 cups of coffee or took a hit of crystal meth. Something was wrong. My
heart started racing and a horrible anxiety came over me.
-
- My feet and legs got numb and my hands started tingling.
It felt like I was losing motor control of the muscles of my extremities.
I felt like I was about to have a seizure.
-
- My tongue went numb and felt swollen and dry. (Classic
MSG symptom.) I had difficulty swallowing.
-
- My mind couldn't focus. I felt like I was about to seize
up and die.
-
- I actually had my co-worker drive to a hospital emergency
room. I knew what was happening, but was scared to death none the less.
I didn't go into the E.R. even though I was in dire distress, but stayed
nearby just in case. I did some yoga exercises on the sidewalk outside
the E.R. and the symptoms passed in about 20 minutes.
-
- Because I have cleaned out my body, because I eat a clean,
healthy diet, I have lost my tolerance to this poison. That Viet cook must
have dumped a tablespoon of the neurotoxin my food.
-
- God Damn MSG! And the makers of this poison!
-
- I don't blame the Vietnamese lady and her husband who
made the food. They were not consciously trying to harm me. They just know
when they put this addictive drug in the food, people eat more and come
back.
-
- Not me. I'll never eat there again.
-
- There are now about 3 restaurants in all of Honolulu
where I will eat. I prefer making all my own food.
-
- If you've ever had the symptoms I described, think about
what you ate.
-
- Almost everything sold (even in "health" food
stores) contains substantial MSG, called yeast extract, natural flavor,
hydrolyzed vegetable protein, soy protein, etc. These are all Poisonous
neurotoxins.
