Not trying to be rude but, could you come up with a better source for Vaccine death numbers?
MSG, Asian countries have some of the highest life expectancy rates in the world and they eat MSG like Americans eat sugar. Can someone in here
MSG Was actually covered in Part 1, but since you asked ill quickly answer. First off, the main issue with MSG is the adverse reactions, which effect
an estimated 30%+ of its consumers, though its symptoms are often misdiagnosed.
In Asia it is true that their manufactured food does contain MSG, just as it does here. But Asia has several key differences from the US:
- A more active lifestyle, people bike and walk, work more hours and work harder than average Americans.
- Most Asians do not consume manufactured food for every meal, thus, likely get a smaller dose of MSG through out the day. They eat rice with
practically every meal, and every Asian I have ever known has fresh rice in the cooker practically 24 hours a day.
- They also cook home meals more than Americans, if they opt to personally add MSG, then sure, but not all do. Where as the American flip side is
different considering each manufactured meal in a day contains it.
- Most Asians have a higher metabolism for a variety of reasons, than that of an average sedentary American. Thus, there they're less worried about
obesity, which on it's own creates a multitude of problems.
The point here is not how many deaths, but how it can and does degrade quality of life for millions of people. Additionally, it's now coming to light
that it appears Asians haven't escaped its wrath either.
Controversy surrounding food additive E621, otherwise known as monosodium glutamate - a common flavour enhancer - was re-ignited this week when a
Japanese researcher suggested that consuming too much of the ingredient could make you go blind.
Researchers at Hirosaki University in Japan have found that rats fed on diets high in MSG suffer vision loss and have thinner retinas. Glutamate is an
amino acid that acts as a neurotransmitter. It has already been shown to cause nerve damage in experiments where it is injected directly into the eye.
They then continue to reaffirm some of my prior sources...
Its use has become controversial in the past 30 years because of reports of adverse reactions in people who have eaten foods that contain MSG.
According to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA ), research on the role of glutamate - a group of chemicals that includes MSG - in the
nervous system has also raised questions about the chemical's safety.
According to lead researcher Hiroshi Ohguro, his is the first study to show that eye damage can be caused by eating food containing MSG. A report in
the New Scientist this week explains that in the study, rats were fed three different diets for six months, containing either high or moderate amounts
of MSG, or none. In rats on the high-MSG diet, some retinal nerve layers thinned by as much as 75 per cent. And tests that measured retinal
response to light showed they could not see as well. Rats on the moderate diet also had damage, to a lesser extent.
The researchers found high concentrations of MSG in the vitreous fluid, which bathes the retina. MSG binds to receptors on retinal cells,
destroying them and causing secondary reactions that reduce the ability of the remaining cells to relay electrical signals.
Ever noticed how many Asians wear glasses? Or better yet, ever met an Asian that doesn't?
So I think there's enough science from enough sources to back the claim that it is not a safe additive. And if its only a "Flavor Enhancer" then
it's not even NECESSARY, even if it were deemed only slightly hazardous.
As far as Vaccines, the governments own reporting on how many lawsuits they underwent because of adverse effects from Vaccines, isn't quite good
enough for you?
How bout we add a few more?
The hepatitis B vaccine has been linked to immunological and neurological disorders.

I would really appreciate those who counter claim to first, read every word I wrote about the topic, don't read one paragraph then hit post reply if
you're going to discuss that topic. Read the entire thing, then start researching, don't just launch claims without providing merit.
