How can we stop MSG being put in our food?

Food additive MSG (MonoSodium Glutamate) is a slow poison. MSG hides behind 25 or more names, such as "Natural Flavoring."
MSG is even in your favorite coffee from Tim Horton's and other brand-name coffee shops!

I wondered if there could be an actual chemical causing the massive obesity epidemic, and so did a friend of mine, John Erb. He was a research assistant at the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada, and spent years working for the government. He made an amazing discovery while going through scientific journals for a book he was writing called The Slow Poisoning of America.

In hundreds of studies around the world, scientists were creating obese mice and rats to use in diet or diabetes test studies. No strain of rat or mice is naturally obese, so scientists have to create them. They make these creatures morbidly obese by injecting them with MSG when they are first born.

The MSG triples the amount of insulin the pancreas creates, causing rats (and perhaps humans) to become obese. They even have a name for the fat rodents they create: "MSG-Treated Rats."

We should push to have it labeled as an ingredient on the nutritional labels now being used on packages and not allow it to be labeled Natural Flavoring. Thanks for the tip. I had never heard about it being labeled that way. I know you can quest none be added at a Chinese restaurant but didn't know of its use in such things as coffee. Perhaps you can start circulating petitions to your heads of government about this. Good luck and success in your efforts.

Stop buying it. Hit them in their wallet. They'll stop adding it.

only buy organic foods.

stop eating at the places that put MSG in their food.Ask them first

I ask my chinese food lady not to put any in mine.

only the canadian/ or american government could ban the use of such chemicals and stress on the organic foods by subsidising it and making it available at a throw away prices

that is one of many reasons why I cook 90% of my meals. I know exactly what is and what isn't in the foods that I consume.

your a paranoid food geek. you seem more worried about the words and the rats than common sense.
I believe obesity is a genetic defect caused by drug use altering your ancestors DNA, also causing mental defects like this paranoia. Millions of people use MSG in daily cooking with NO harm.
Just another organic food ploy. "All food is organic".

I'm allergic to MSG, so I was happy to see the "WE NO USE MSG HERE" sign at a local Thai place. They lied. Within 3 minutes of my first bite, I puffed up like a blowfish and my friend was calling 911 because I was purple and couldn't breathe. The restaraunt's owner claimed he didn't know "ACCENT" flavor enhancer was MSG. The hospital found near toxic levels of MSG in the 4 bites they pumped out of my stomach. A little extra flavor isn't worth dying over

SOME FOOD HAVE THERE OWN TOXINS SO IT MAY NOT BE FROM FOOD MANUFACTURES.SO IN THIS SETUP IT'S UP TO THE FOOD MANUFACTURE TO LET THEM KNOW BUT IT'S UP TO THE PEOPLE TO STOP USING THE PRODUCT. THERE REALLY NOTHING YOU CAN DO BUT TO LET THEE PEOPLE KNOW.IT'S LIKE SMOKING THE PERSON KNOWS ITS BAD FOR THEM BUT THEY KEEP USING IT.JUST REMEMBER IT THE PERSON BODY AND IT'S THERE CHOSE AS LONG AS IT DOESN'T HURT ANY ONE ELSE.
