So you have been eating MSG since you were a kid and it hasn’t bother you, so the rest of us are imagining it. No. It’s not fat and salt.

I too had eaten MSG occasionally and never noticed anything. I decided I was fat (I really wasn’t) so I went on Nurtisystems to lose 10 pounds.

After 3 weeks of eating that crap 3 X a day I felt horrible and threw the next weeks meals away. The next time I ate MSG I had a horrible reaction. I had sensitized myself to it in 3 weeks and it hasn’t gone away.

That doesn’t happen to everyone who eats Nutrisystems but the chemicals in that food are dangerous for some of us.

MSG is more than dangerous for some people. It’s lethal.

Years ago people took MAO inhibitors for depression. Not many people take it now because it’s too dangerous. If the person ate certain foods or something with MSG it could be life threatening.

BTW - You never know when you are getting MSG. I knew someone who had a bad reaction to it at an Italian restaurant. It was in the spaghetti sauce.

I got talked into nutrisystem. It works for some, permanently, dunno.

Got a month’s supply, read through the directions and found that in addition, I was to purchase a lot of stuff, and all of which was on another diet, which I stuck with and lost a bunch of weight.

I remembered MSG, and looked through the Nutrisystem.

It was just boxes of MSG with some dried unrecognizable stuff to reconstitute.

Sent it back very quickly
