| My wife reads all labels to see if there is any MSG. She can't necessarily get that information in restaurants but she soon learns (within minutes) if it has been added to the food. She has an auto-immune disorder called Behcets Syndrome. MSG, among other toxic additives to food, or even "glutens" as a food product, or toxic chemicals in living spaces can cause almost instantaneous pain, swelling, redness, ulcers in the mouth, eyes and other "orifices" and within hours lesions in any of the connective tissue. People with disorders like Behcets (perhaps Crohn's Disease) are like the "canary in the mineshaft". They unwillingly detect conditions that in reality are harmful to almost all of us.
