Warning: MSG In American Foods Disguised Under 40 New Names You Haven’t Heard Of

MSG has well earned terrifying reputation. Why? Because there has been a never ending cavalcade of studies showing that its sweet savory enhancing taste is actually linked to a number of serious health complications.

Among these you’ll find: progressive liver disease, ADHD, heart palpitations, and severe complications to your metabolism.

In other words, improving the taste of food has never carried such a high cost for your family’s health. And to be honest, natural recipes will never need MSG because they are simply amazing.

Despite the general backlash against MSG, some food manufacturers are still sneaking it into baby food and foods that are extremely popular amongst our children.

This Is How Food Manufacturers Are Hiding MSG In Your Food

Even though the general public is well aware of these dangers and is actively demanding these businesses to get rid of MSG from their food products, it doesn’t mean the business will change drastically for the best.

You see, MSG allows these businesses to make a subpar product and drastically improve its taste to sell it to the public. Their bottom line would suffer if they were to serve these subpar foods without any flavor enhancers.

It’s no surprise that they’re looking for every possible loophole to make sure they can sneak MSG into their products without getting any unwanted attention from the FDA.

The Legal Loophole That Allows This MSG In Your Home

Officially, the FDA requires that every food manufacturer label monosodium glutamate on their product’s ingredient list. This almost sounds foolproof, right?

Unfortunately, the FDA didn’t cover its bases. Food producers aren’t legally obligated to label foods that contain the main ingredients from MSG. This allows MSG to sneak in unnoticed into your food.

And unlike MSG, these ingredients have not received the necessary media scrutiny regarding their dangers.

How Can You Avoid Hidden MSG?

At first glance, the most visible solution is carry around this list and cross-examine every food product you come into contact with. However, in practical terms, this seems far from viable. Most of us don’t have the time to actually pull this off and hunger also cuts into our willingness to examine every piece of food.

I think that the long-term solution to this issue is prioritizing the long-term needs over short-term desires. Your best bet is to cook your own meals at home using certified organic ingredients.
