I ordered a new book called "Excitotoxins: The Taste that Kills" by Dr. Russell Blaylock, a neurosurgeon.  I had heard of the book several years ago and have been trying to avoid the excitotoxins since then, but the book is powerful and I recommend anyone with a neurological issue to get and read it.  (Actually we all need to read it so we can figure out how not to let the FDA kill us with the foods and additive that they approve for our consumption. 80,000 chemicals now approved for our food supply.)  He relates the history of MSG and shows why it is so dangerous.  He also covers aspartame and its history and why it is also dangerous.  Those of us that are 60 years plus probably did not start out our life with either of those toxins in our diet, but it is so prevalent now that I fear for our children and grandchildren.  The FDA has allowed it in baby food and children's food and allows food manufactures to market it to children.  MSG is a flavor enhancer.  Aspartame is a sweetener. 
 
Dr. Blaylock points out in his book that those with ALS or other neurological issues have brains with brain barriers that are not functioning properly.  The brain barriers have become compromised and are allowing into the brain these MSG or aspartame toxins.  Both toxins are so prevalent in our food supply that none of us are immune to its destructive forces.  Reading labels for MSG or aspartame does not reveal all they names the industry has attached to them as they try to hide them from us.  So I am going to list some of them here for you:
 
Additives which always contain MSG (which stands for monosodium glutamate):
Hydrolized Vegetable Protein
Hydrolized Protein
Hydrolized Plant Protein
Plant Protein Extract
Sodium Caseinate
Yeast Extract
Texterized Protein
Autolyzed Yeast
Hydrolized Oat Flour
 
Additives that frequently contain MSG:
Malt extract
Malt flavoring
Bouillon
Broth
Stock
Flavoring
Natural Flavoring
Natural Beef or Chicken Flavoring
Seasoning
Spices
 
Additives that may contain MSG or Excitotoxins:
 
Carrageenan (I can't find a college cheese without this one)
Enzymes
Soy Protein Concentrate
Soy Protein Isolate
Whey Protein Concentrate ( If you feel you need a whey protein, I would consider ordering it from Dr. Joseph Mercola at www.mercola.com.  Dr. Mercola’s is very aware of anything toxic and only uses and sells only healthful products. 
 
Apartame is also called Nutrisweet.  It has many other names but I don't have them at my fingertips right now.  But I'll bet that they can be found on Dr. Mercola's site.  Aspartame is what they use in diet sodas for a sweetener.  It is highly toxic to the brain.  I had a doctor tell me to take Metamucil for the rest of my life to keep a clean colon.  Guess what!  One of its ingredients is - Aspartame!  Actually supplemental magnesium will do the same thing.  Probably the majority of Americans are deficient in magnesium.  Dr. Blaylock talks about the need for magnesium in neurological illnesses. 
 
Now to why we should watch this video that I have attached below. Our children and grandchildren are at far greater risk than we are because many of them have been exposed to these toxins even before birth.  Our pregnant daughter-in-law's favorite salad dressing is Ranch.  It is very difficult to find a ranch dressing without MSG.  So even before he is born, I fear for neurological damage to our unborn grandson.
 
Both MSG and aspartame create cravings for the foods that contain them.  And they are in every processed food imaginable.  Don't believe that just going to a health food store protects you from anything bad.  You have to read every label. 
 
Watch this video.  Only about 5 minutes long, but powerful about the importance of preserving a pure food supply given by an 11 year old boy.  http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2013/12/31/monsanto-4-h-programs.aspx?e_cid=20131231Z1_PRNL_art_1&utm_source=prmrnl&utm_medium=email&utm_content=art1&utm_campaign=20131231Z1&et_cid=DM38113&et_rid=384558245
