Free Processed Glutamate

You're all neglecting the harmful and addictive chemical called Free Processed Glutamate, which present in every day foods without being included on the label. Why you neglect that could either be ignorance or cowardice, but anyway, here's the lowdown on what you need to know: Its symptoms range from minor headaches and migranes to seizures, rapid heartbeat, leaky gut, and causes or worses Obesity, Diabetes, Alzheimer's and Autism just to name a few. The symptoms could occur either in the short-run or long-run. This all wouldn't be such a big deal if Monosodium Glutamate were the only neurotoxic ingredient found in food, but the problem is that free processed glutamate (the toxic/functional part of MSG) is present in at least 75 other ingredients as well, such as autolyzed yeast, citric acid, gelatin, natural flavor and malted barley. However, the free processed glutamate isn't included anywhere on the label even though it's present in the product. Consumers should not only learn to read ingredients, but how to interperate them. According to the book Excitotoxins: The Taste That Kills by Russell L. Blaylock, at least 40% of the American public are sensitive to free processed glutamate. If you're sensitive to it, it's not an intolerance, it's a poisoning! Why does the FDA allow MSG to be GRAS (Generally Regarded as Safe) if it allows companies not to measure and disclose the free processed glutamate quantity on the labels? How in the world could the FDA consider MSG to be natural in the first place!?!? Why don't students/doctors who study health know about the 75 toxic ingredients related to MSG? If glutamate were truly GRAS, then what's stopping companies/corporations from dislosing its content? Perhaps because it's NOT safe or healthy and doesn't belong in our food/drinks to begin with. It's even in toothpaste! Does anyone else smell a potention cover-up? Anyway, check out the links below and read the books Excitotoxins: The Taste That Kills and Health & Nutrition Secrets That Can Save Your Life, both by Russell L. Blaylock which will be quite helpful. And, remember: knowledge is power. FYI, there have already been court cases against the FDA and there's even evidence has been tainted/biased by those who tested glutamate toxicity, but consumers have thus far lost to all those goliaths.

I agree with you completely. And, as a matter of fact, I have just heard about a new product that is being advertised widely as some new miracle food. It's called Omami and contains glutamate, inosinate and guanylate. Stay away from it! Because glutamate is an excitotoxin, nobody, especially children should be consuming products that contain this substance.

Glutamate sounds like "gluten" to me..

is that the G in msg? and are gluten-free products and foods free of glutamate?

Glutamate might sound like "gluten".....but they are two different things entirely.

MSG = Monosodium Glutamate

Gluten free products are free of gluten....but not necessarily free of MSG.

      While it's always important to approach internal use of essential oils with caution and ideally under the guidance of a qualified professional, your experience highlights the potential of complementary approaches when traditional medicine falls short. Many in the community are also interested in the intersection of natural wellness and gluten-free living, particularly for managing systemic inflammation and its various symptoms, so sharing your story is valuable. Your observation that it may also be helping with bloating is fascinating, as that could point to an overall reduction in inflammation. Thank you for sharing what is working for you!

      It's interesting how a single, clear moment—like struggling during a game—can suddenly connect all the dots and reveal the hidden impact of gluten exposure. Your experience with short-term memory fog is a very real and documented symptom for many individuals with gluten sensitivity, often occurring alongside the other issues you mentioned like mood disturbances, sleep disruption, and digestive irregularity. It's a frustrating and often invisible effect that can make you feel unlike yourself, so that moment of clarity, though born from a tough dominoes match, is actually a powerful piece of self-knowledge. Identifying a specific culprit like that steak strip is a huge win, as it arms you with the information needed to avoid similar pitfalls in the future and protect your cognitive clarity. You are definitely not alone in experiencing this particular set of neurological and physical symptoms; it's a strong reminder of gluten's profound impact on the entire body, not just the digestive system. Supplementation may help you as well.  The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.

      Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS. What you're describing is a very common and frustrating experience when reintroducing gluten after a period of avoidance, and your timeline is perfectly consistent with a non-celiac gluten sensitivity. While a celiac reaction can be more immediate, a sensitivity reaction is often delayed, sometimes taking several days to manifest as your body's inflammatory response builds up; the fact that your symptoms returned a few days after reintroduction is a strong indicator that gluten is indeed the culprit, not a coincidence. Your doctor's advice to reintroduce it was necessary to confirm the diagnosis, as the initial negative celiac test and subsequent improvement on a gluten-free diet pointed strongly towards sensitivity. Many in this community have gone through this exact same process of elimination and challenging, and it's wise to reintroduce gently as you did. Given your clear reaction, the best course of action is likely to resume a strict gluten-free diet, as managing a sensitivity is the primary way to control those debilitating symptoms and allow your body to heal fully.

      Your suspicion is almost certainly correct, and you are wise to be cautious. Draft cider is a very common and often overlooked source of cross-contact because the same tap lines are frequently used for both beer and cider; unless a bar has a dedicated line for gluten-free beverages, which is rare, the cider will run through tubing that has previously contained gluten-containing beer, contaminating your drink. The fact that you didn't react at a clean brewery suggests they may have had more meticulous practices or separate lines, but this is the exception, not the rule. Many in the community have had identical experiences, leading them to strictly avoid draft cider and opt for bottled or canned versions, which are poured directly from their sealed container and bypass the contaminated tap system entirely. Switching to bottles or cans is the safest strategy, and your plan to do so is a smart move to protect your health. PS - here are some articles on the topic:

      Your post really highlights the financial and emotional struggle so many families face. You are not alone in feeling frustrated by the high cost of gluten-free specialty items and the frustrating waste when your daughter can't tolerate them. A great place to start is by focusing on naturally gluten-free whole foods that are often more affordable and less processed, like rice, potatoes, beans, lentils, corn, eggs, and frozen fruits and vegetables—these are nutritional powerhouses that can form the basis of her meals. For the specialty items like bread and pasta, see if your local stores carry smaller, single-serving packages or allow returns if a product causes a reaction, as some companies understand this challenge. Regarding vitamins, that is an excellent next step; please ask her doctor to prescribe a high-quality gluten-free multivitamin, as insurance will often cover prescribed vitamins, making them much more affordable. Finally, connecting with a local celiac support group online can be a treasure trove of location-specific advice for finding the best and most affordable products in your area, saving you both time and money on the trial-and-error process.
