John Erb  a research assistant at the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada, and spent years working for the government.   In writing a book, called "The Slow Poisoning of America", he made a discovery.  "
America".
In hundreds of studies around the world, scientists were creating obese mice
and rats to use in  studies on diabetes and diet. No strain of rat or mice
is  obese naturally, so the scientists had to create them. They make these 
obese  by injecting them with MSG when they are first
born. It seems as though the MSG triples the amount of insulin the pancreas creates; causing rats to become obese.
MSG is in so many of our foods.  Just check out the various items in your cupboard.
Many foods that are fed to our children contain MSG under many different names.
(Other names for MSG: 'Accent' - 'Aginomoto' - 'Natural Meet
Tenderizer', hydrolyzed vegetable protein and natural flavoring)
