MSG.
The largest source of MSG (monosodium glutamate) in the average American diet is processed American food. The FDA’s official stance on MSG is: “Safety assessments have found no evidence connecting long-term reactions to the flavor enhancer monosodium glutamate.”
Neurosurgeon Dr. Russell Blaylock, author of the book Excitoxins: The Taste That Kills, when asked what changes in public health we would see over the next five years if we outlawed MSG and aspartame tomorrow, responded, "I think you'd see a significant drop in obesity and metabolic syndrome. You'd see a tremendous drop in certain cancers. You would certainly see a tremendous drop in the neurodegenerative diseases, and all of these diseases that are increasing expeditiously."
rBGH
The dairy industry uses rBGH to increase milk production in cows. It finds its way into milk and cheese. Canada, the 25 countries in the European Union, Japan, Australia, and New Zealand have all banned rBGH because of scientific health concerns. Polls have shown that American consumers overwhelmingly support labeling rBGH-produced milk as such. But the FDA has said such labeling would brand rBGH milk as less healthy, which would be unfair to the dairy farmers. Who was the FDA official responsible for this policy? Before joining the FDA, he was a partner in the law firm representing Monsanto when it applied for FDA approval for rBGH. His employer after he left the FDA, by the way, was Monsanto.
lymphoma or leukemia. The FDA says aspartame is one of the most thoroughly tested and studied additives it has ever approved. It also says that over 100 clinical and toxicological studies it has reviewed confirm that aspartame is safe for the general population. Now what scares me is that the man who became the CEO of G.D. Searle when it got FDA approval for aspartame was none other than former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld. Hmmm. Doesn’t that make you wonder?
