After eight years of multiple health problems and esp chronic fatigue and
PAIN, thanks to several books and one great book "The Food Allergy Book" by
Dr. William Walsh ISBN#0-9631544-7-8, I am cured of an unkown MSG
intolerance....in fact according to the biochemical reaction of msg in the
body this problem is probably inherint to every living, breathing mammal on
the face of the earth. Wake up America!!! The major food corps have found a
loop hole in the FDA's ruling and are adding msg to your food without having
to identify it on the label as such. They are adding it as a "natural"
ingredient as it it is naturally found in corn...so they can add corn and
thus preserve foods with the msg found in corn without labeling it as msg.
And corn comes in many names like: dextrose, maltose, dextrin, aspartame,
xanthan gum, zein, and the obvious - corn syrup, corn starch or modified food
starch, food starch or just starch and the list goes on and on... So far ten
in my family are now well from multiple health problems due to hidden sources
of msg now known and avoided. This discovery has transpired within our
family over the past year with hours of research. Other recommened books are
"The Whole Way to Allergy Relief and Prevention" by Dr. Jacqueline Krohn
ISBN#0-88179-036-2 and "The Complete Guide to Food Allergy and Intolerance"
by Dr. Jonathan Brostoff and Linda Gamlin ISBN#0-517-57756-9. From these
books we put the puzzle together and the final piece was Dr. Walsh's book.

We were diagnosed with Fibromyalgia (and all its associated names), MS,
Chrohn's Disease, IBS, Diverticutilits, Migraines, TMJ(wore bite guards for
years), Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (some had surgery and some wore braces for
years), colitis , gastoenteritis, allergic rhinitis, sinusitis, asthma (with
inhalers), chostrochondritis, heart "murmur," chronic bronchitis, atopic
dermatitis, dishydrosis, Adult ADD, rhematoid arthritis, Chronic Fatigue
Syndrome, chronic ear infections, vertigo, myofascial pain syndrome, sleep
disorders, edema, anxiety/panic attacks,depression, incontinence (bladder and
bowel), eating disorders, and auditory processing dysfunction to name a few.
By now you are thinking...this person is crazy...well after all the realted
medical problems suffered that could be possible, however, we no longer have
any of them as long as we avoid msg (which includes processed corn products,
some fermented products, and other items listed in Dr. Walsh's book). Those
who are now well from all or some of the above medical problems and other
symptoms include my sister, her children, my children, my mother, my
grandchildren, my brother and myself. Hope this info helps -- what I would
have given to have known it eight years ago... "
