Legal Food Manufacturing Processes That Lead to Fibromyalgia

Please be careful if you suffer from Fibromyalgia when eating processed food, which has been autolyzed or hydrolyzed. The term "lyzed" means to split apart. Food manufacturers can legally create MSG by taking a whole food and splitting the glutamic acid out of the food. When this happens free glutamic acid (MSG) is produced.

There is nothing wrong with the amino acid, L-Glutamic Acid when it is bound to the vegtable or protein that manufactured it. When food companies separate the DNA structure of the whole food through autolyzing or hydrolyzing they create Monosodium Glutamate (MSG). These processes legally allow food companies to hide the letters, MSG from our labels.

MSG is an excitotoxin that causes Fibromyalgia. These symptoms include muscle pain, headaches, neck and back pain, neurological, skin, and cardiac reactions.

According to Wikipedia "Hydrolyzed vegetable protein or HVP, is produced by boiling cereals or legumes, such as soy, corn,or wheat in hydrochloric acid and then neutralizing the solution with sodium hydroxide. The acid hydrolyzes or breaks down the protein in vegetables into their component amino acids. The resulting brown powder contains, amoung other amino acids, glutamic acid, which consumers are more familiar with in the form of its sodium salt, MSG."

Autolyzed yeast or autolyzed yeast extract is produced differently, but the results are the same. The protein is subject to autolysis and free glutamic acid (MSG) is released.

There are a growing number of scientists and doctors from around the world who are convinced that the excitotoxin, MSG plays a critical role in the development of several neurological disorders including joint and muscle pain, endocrine disorders, Parkinson\'s disease and Fibromyalgia.

Hello my name is Cynthia Jones and I\'ve had chronic pain for 25 years. I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia 10 years ago. I\'ve found the cause of my pain - and with the elimination of these excitotoxins - my recovery. It has become my life\'s purpose to help heal those in chronic pain.
