Dr. Russell Blaylock talks about MSG (maybe he was on the 700 club?? I missed that).......a good movie to watch is "Sweet Remedy"...that is the second movie made by a girl with MS. Her first movie was "Sweet Misery" about Aspartame. My 6 yr old has Asperger's, and we've been avoiding MSG for the last 2 years like the plague. From what I have read, it can cause brain damage in a baby if a mother eats it while pregnant. Could explain the Asperger's. I wasn't careful about what I was eating, other than avoiding the usual stuff like diet soda and shrimp. We've even stopped eating out, except for 3 places (the only 3 I can eat at without getting sick).......but we eat gluten free Asian food (probably has MSG), and Chicken soup Chicken from the Burrito place (soups usually have MSG), and plain chicken and veggies from a local Chinese restaurant (also probably has MSG)..........so.........it's hard to avoid, but we really try. A big one is "natural flavors"...you never know what is really in it. It's really hard to avoid that!!!!
