JUNK FOOD ADDITIVES STOP NERVE CELL GROWTH?

[Guest guest]

Here is one example of the stuff our kids are up against.

The FDA may have decided aspartame is fit for human

consumption ( it isn't, but that is another story) or that

MSG OK. (ditto).

 

But nobody has ever sat down to test the whole unnatural

cocktail that we are exposed to. Even if we wanted to,

the variables are too many. Bolding is mine.

 

 

JUNK FOOD ADDITIVES STOP NERVE CELL GROWTHMixing the common additives aspartame an artificial sweetener and monosodium glutamate (MSG) causes nerve cell damage, say researchers at the University of Liverpool. The results from a two-year study were recently published in the journal Toxicological Sciences.The researchers found the additives were much more potent in combination with each other than on their own. Mice were exposed to concentrations of MSG and aspartame relative to what a child would receive in an average snack and drink. Researchers were surprised to see the additives interfered with nerve signalling systems and actually stopped the nerve cells from growing.Aspartame is commonly found in diet drinks, candies and flavored medicines, while MSG is frequently found in chips, processed cheese and many processed foods.Learn more: http://www.organicconsumers.org/toxic/msg010306.cfm
