See article keywords and concepts |  This is a company that seems to be doing most things right, and the majority of their food products contain no yeast extract or hidden sources of msg. I say we encourage Amy's to drop yeast extract as an ingredient and stick with 100% pure herbs and spices for ALL its food products.
Will you join me in letting Amy's know that we don't want yeast extract in our organic food? If so, post a comment at the Amy's Kitchen website and let them know you don't want this processed taste enhancer substance in your food! |

Now you know how to avoid the most damaging intestinal toxins from food, but you still need to learn how to prepare fresh, delicious, organic food. For example, should you eat organic foods as a raw salad or lightly cook them for a few minutes along with a pasta dish? Does it really matter? Absolutely!
Cooking Food the Wrong Way!
Anti-catarrhal Factors:
Any substance which aids in removing mucous and reducing inflammation of the mucous membranes. | | These toxins include genetically modified foods, pesticides (used to treat the crops), meat and dairy, soy, white flour, table salt, msg (Monosodium Glutamate), microwaved foods, refined sugar, artificial sweeteners, caffeinated drinks (colas, coffee, etc.), and alcohol. At the end of each category, I provide you with a quick reference chart for the easiest way to eliminate or reduce your daily exposure to these toxins.

Every journey begins with a first step, and you are obviously ready to embark on your transformation in health or you would not be reading this book. Set realistic goals and be patient and I will show you how to achieve optimal health.
Openly consider the foods you put into your body. How much of your diet consists of healthy, nutritious food that helps your mind and body grow and thrive? |

There's no yeast extract, and even after eating an entire package, I suffered no headache at all, indicating that there was no hidden msg in this product. I'm sure that was an important product formulation decision made by the manufacturer of Pete's Tofu, and by the way, you can learn more about this product at PetesTofu.com.

How Does White Flour Cause a Toxic Colon?
White flour is a common ingredient made from grains of wheat. Unlike whole grain flour, which utilizes wheat in its entirety (starch, protein, and fiber), white flour is made from just the starchy part. In effect, the healthful parts of the wheat are removed. | | Every 24 hours, you may consume the following amounts of toxins in an average lifestyle:
Toxins from Food: 325,000
White flour, sugar in desserts, hormones and antibiotics, soy, pesticides, genetically modified foods, msg, hydrogenated oils, fast foods and cooked, boxed, canned, processed foods, etc.
Toxins from Beverages: 160,000
Pasteurized milk, soft drinks, diet colas, "energy" (highly caffeinated) drinks, sports drinks, juice concentrates, coffee, alcohol, refined sugars, artificial sweeteners, artificial coloring, etc. |

See article keywords and concepts | | Return any food products made with msg or yeast extract. Take them back and demand a refund. This will get the retailers paying attention and applying pressure to Amy's Kitchen to stop shipping products with yeast extract. Make your consumer dollars count!
4. Beware of other brands that use yeast extract. Check the labels of Gardenburger, Boca Burger, Cedarlane and other "vegetarian" or "natural" frozen food companies to make sure you never buy yeast extract from them, either. (Most of these companies continue to use the ingredient. |

See article keywords and concepts |  Aside from casein, you'll also find that many so-called "natural" food products contain msg in the form of yeast extract, another deceptive ingredient used in many natural foods. These include all the popular "meatless" brands you see at the health food stores. It's virtually impossible to find a vegetarian burger that doesn't contain msg in one form or another. So much for the "natural" claim, huh?
Folks, it's not just the big mainstream food companies that are deceptive in their marketing. |

Dilute dressings—even lower calorie varieties— to make the most of the "flavor spread" to your lettuce leaves and when at home, measure the dressing and then toss the salad. Also consider using a spray bottle for thinner dressings. In a restaurant, use fruit wedges like oranges, limes, or lemons or use balsamic vinegar or a salsa to add flavor to your salad. |

See article keywords and concepts |  Fitzgerald: We looked at some of the studies done in the later part of 2005, examining the synergistic reactions between aspartame -- the synthetic sweetener that is found in thousands of products now -- and msg, along with two common food colorings. This was a study done in England at a university in the later part of 2005. The result was found that when msg, aspartame and these two food colorings were mixed together, they create a synergy that kills nerve cells. It causes neurological damage. |

See book keywords and concepts |  MSG is found in some Chinese and Japanese food and is also contained in some flavor enhancers, such as Accent and the Japanese seasoning AJI-NO-MOTO. msg may be difficult to avoid completely, as it also occurs in hydrolyzed vegetable protein, textured vegetable protein, gelatin, yeast extracts, calcium and sodium caseinate, vegetable broth, whey (page 613), smoke flavoring, malt extracts, and several other food ingredients—including "flavoring" and "natural flavoring"—without otherwise appearing on the label. | | The actual percentage of people with msg sensitivity who are deficient in vitamin Bg and who respond to Bg supplementation is unknown. Nonetheless, many doctors suggest that people having MSG-sensitivity symptoms try supplementing with vitamin B6 for three months as a trial.

Remember, as consumers, we vote with our dollars. And I apologize for not knowing some of Amy's Kitchen products were made with yeast extract. That was an oversight on my part, and I believe that I was misled by the product labels into thinking the company would never use yeast extract. But I was wrong. |

See article keywords and concepts |  However, in large enough doses, msg is neurotoxic to everyone, and it is especially detrimental to young, developing brains. Read food labels carefully. msg is particularly well disguised and is present in a number of additives, including hydrolyzed vegetable protein, yeast extract, seasonings, natural flavorings, stock, broth, and bouillon. |

See article keywords and concepts |  Processed foods: Processed foods not only lack the nutrition necessary for healthy nervous system function, they're also typically loaded with excitotoxins like msg, aspartame and yeast extract. These substances damage the functioning of the nervous system, making any practice of the Law of Attraction virtually impossible.
Fragrance products: All fragrance products based on artificial chemicals impair the healthy functioning of the nervous system by dulling the senses and limiting sensory acquity. |

By screaming "China!" to the U.S. press and pointing the finger at dangerous Chinese-made products, the Food and Drug Administration diverts scrutiny from its own lousy lack of meaningful food safety enforcement with U.S. manufacturers.

3) Boycott all processed meat products for life! Never buy processed meats again. That includes shopping at the grocery store, eating at a restaurant or consuming foods at a social event.
4) Spread the word. |

See article keywords and concepts | | Technically, China should ban all processed meat imports from the United States, given that such meats contain detectable levels of cancer-causing chemicals in the form of sodium nitrite (and msg, usually). If the world were really concerned about food safety, they would ban virtually all common food items made in the USA: Beef, hamburgers, processed meats, sugary sweets, diet sodas, frozen dinners and much more. The USA is the largest exporter of death and disease in the entire world. We sell more disease-promoting crap than anyone, and every country that adopts the U.S. |
Michael F. Jacobson, Ph.D., Lisa Y. Lefferts and Anne Witte Garland
See book keywords and concepts | | Schwartz and his colleagues have publicly objected to the fact that the USDA has permitted some companies to include msg and a related additive, HVP (hydrolyzed vegetable protein), under the general term "artificial flavorings."
ž Safe Food choice: If you think you are sensitive to msg, look at ingredient listings carefully. Also, avoid hydrolyzed vegetable protein, or HVP, which may contain msg. The organization NO msg can provide additional information (see page 209). |

See article keywords and concepts |  Yeast extract was one of the first replacements for msg -- it has the same effect on taste, and it contains a concentration of free glutamic acid, just like msg. The difference is that it doesn't look as bad on the label, and food manufacturers can actually claim that it's all-natural. You'll see yeast extract in many products, even so-called natural products like veggie burgers. But now that the word is getting out about yeast extract, food companies are switching to yet another hidden form of a chemical taste enhancer. | | If you're looking for hidden forms of msg chemicals on food labels, look for yeast extract and torula yeast, and anything that is hydrolyzed or autolyzed. Autolyzed or hydrolyzed vegetable proteins are also hidden sources of msg, according to Dr. Russell Blaylock, author of "Excitotoxins," and perhaps the world's top expert on neurotoxic substances found in the food supply. |

3. msg is routinely hidden in foods in these ingredients: yeast extract, torula yeast, hydrolyzed vegetable protein and autolyzed yeast. Thousands of common grocery products contain one or more of these chemical taste enhancers, including nearly all "vegetarian" foods such as veggie burgers (read labels to check). See Food manufacturers hide dangerous ingredients in everyday foods by using confusing terms on the label.
