----- Original Message ----- From: Ode Coyote<mailto:odecoy...@alltel.net> It's also a natural extract when processed, like Monosodium Glutamate, accurately labeled as a natural flavoring.
You may believe that MSG is harmful, but..it's also unavoidable. The question is, how much? Ode We have a friend living and teaching in the Philippines that is assisting several women with treatment due to kidney shut down from MSG. Seems that use a lot of it over there to flavor due to lack of funds for meats and such. They use fish heads and marinate it in water with MSG for a week or so and then pour that liquid over rice to give the rice flavor. It seems to effect women more than men and a lot of women die young over there. There is no free medical over there, even veterans. They might be seen by a doctor but they have to buy their medications or they don't get well from what we have been told. Dianne
