MSG dangerous?

[Ruhl]

I have read about the bad effects of MSG. It seems that I could be eating a fair amount of it since I get a good deal of my protein from Soy Protein Isolate. SPI was looked upon as a particularly good (bad) source of MSG from what I read. Is there much to be concerned about in regards to MSG?

if you are sensitive to it, then potentially, otherwise who cares.

I have developed MSG sensitivity in the last year, I will get terrible headaches when I eat commercial beef jerky for example. You will know if you are sensitive.

They are correct, MSG is only bad for those who are sensitive to it, if you aren't sensitive to it then don't worry about it. There's a lot of people out there on the internet who like to scare monger. Try to verify facts with credible sources before letting it get to ya.
