<h1>The Hidden Sources of MSG (Monosodium Glutamate)</h1> <p>MSG (monosodium glutamate) is an ingredient that is in many foods — both human foods and pet foods. MSG is a synthetic (man made) ingredient.</p> <p>MSG is most popularly known for its use in Chinese cooking. However, MSG is based on a natural food enhancer that the Chinese used for thousands of years, which is derived from certain mushrooms. This natural food enhancer is okay. It's the synthetic version that is not.</p> <p>Due to the fact MSG is cheaper, the man–made version of MSG, replaced the natural and original food enhancer.</p> <p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_LaLanne" title="Jack LaLanne" class="external">Jack LaLanne</a> is a famous person who was inspired by <!-- Paul_Bragg -->Paul Bragg</a>.

MSG is one of those ingredients man made which we, as humans, should not eat let alone give to our pets because MSG will not let us humans live to be a 120 years old nor will it benefit our pets.</p> <p>While doing some research on MSG and its side effects, I found an interesting web site — <a href="http://www.truthinlabeling.org/" title="Truth in Labeling" class="external">Truth In Labeling</a>. <q>Truth In Labeling</q> provides information about sources of MSG including vaccines such as the H1N1 (Swine Flu vaccine) along with some of the many dangers of MSG.</p> <h2>Sources of Monosodium Glutamate (MSG)</h2> <p>Based on the <a href="http://www.truthinlabeling.org/" title="Truth in Labeling" class="external">Truth In Labeling</a> web site, I discovered that MSG was in many sources.</p> <p><b>Always Contain MSG:</b></p> <p>The following ingredients always contain MSG.</p> <pre> Glutamate Glutamic acid (E 620) (E 620) Monosodium glutamate Monopotassium glutamate (E 621) (E 622) Calcium glutamate Monoammonium glutamate (E 623) (E 624) Magnesium glutamate (E 625) Ajinomoto Calcium caseinate Natrium glutamate (natrium is Latin/German for sodium) Gelatin Sodium caseinate Textured protein Vetsin (Vitsin) Anything <q>hydrolyzed</q> Autolyzed yeast Yeast extract Yeast nutrient Yeast food </pre> <p><b>Sometimes Contain MSG:</b></p> <p>The following ingredients sometimes contain MSG.</p> <pre> Bouillon and Broth Barley malt Carrageenan Citric acid Malt extract Malt flavoring Maltodextrin Natural beef flavoring Natural chicken flavoring Natural pork flavoring Pectin Protease Soy protein Soy protein concentrate Soy protein isolate Soy sauce Soy sauce extract Stock Ultra–pasteurized Whey protein Whey protein concentrate Whey protein isolate Anything enzyme modified Anything fermented Anything protein fortified Flavors(s) and Flavoring(s) Natural flavor(s) and flavoring(s) Seasonings (the word <q>seasonings</q>) </pre> <p><b>Signs MSG May Be Present:</b></p> <p>The following ingredients work synergistically with MSG to enhance flavor.
