 Msg is a bad trigger of mine and most companys do a fine job of listing it although you might be in the store reading for a half hour. My complant is i purchased a item that did not list it and boom a full blown attack in which i also tore my rotater cuff--- nice well i went back and read the can it had 1 para. and at the bottem it said artificial flavoring which is you guessed it msg among others. So be more careful about reading then I was if msg is a trigger. thanks and pfd to everyone

Right on. To avoid MSG you have to do alot of reading.
These things contain (or are) MSG:
glutamate
glutamic acid
gelatin
monosodium glutamate
calcium caseinate
textured protein
monopotassium glutamate
sodium caseinate
yeast nutrient
yeast extract
yeast food
autolyzed yeast
hydrolyzed protein
hydrolyzed corn gluten
These things often contain MSG:
carrageenan
vegetable gum
seasonings
spices
flavorings
natural flavorings
chicken flavoring
beef flavoring
pork flavoring
smoke flavoring
bouillon
broth
stock
barley malt
malt extract
malt flavoring
whey protein
whey protein isolate
whey protein concentrate
soy protein
soy protein isolate
soy protein concentrate
soy sauce
soy extract
Also, MSG can be a natural vegetable by-product. For example, as a tomato ripens, the level of glutamate rises. Glutamate can also be the by-product of a fermentation process such as with aged cheese. The body processes artificial MSG and natural glutamates in the same way.
