MSG. Is it bad …. what does it do? Is it frustrating our efforts to control our weight? <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I read this article this morning<\/a>, and wanted to pass it along. It implicates MSG in neurological problems like epilepsy, Parkinson’s Disease, etc. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
Here’s the bottom line.<\/b> <\/div>\n
It’s important to think about these issues, but it is NOT important for us to solve them before doing something to protect our health. I explain what this means on my morning audio thoughts, posted here on our Ning discussion site<\/a>, along with a video explaining the dangers. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Please share this with any you think might be interested.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
