Guest guest Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 A few people were saying, awhile ago, that they had an MSG style reaction to Bragg's Liquid Aminos. I have just been listening to Michael Greger's talk on the stuff and according to him, there *IS* MSG in it. He didn't say anything much about it but I thought it was interesting to have that confirmation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Free glutamates, not MSG. Different thing, but some people have the same reaction.

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Yes Braggs, like many foods, does contain naturally occurring glutamic acid.

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 I don't get the headache unless I really eat a lot of it! If my body is already at it's limit or I'm overcoming cold/flu or pancreatitis flair up I will have IBS symptoms. Most stuff seem to start out with IBS symptoms and then progressively get worse with migraines and such. That's why doctors irritate me with IBS diagnoses and their pill cures! It's not IBS, it's food! Avoid the foods causing the symptoms and walla...your cured! I did experiment on myself keeping a journal, ate only foods that I knew caused the symptoms for a day, noting my moods and everything. Then 2 weeks of only safe foods, not even any ok in moderation foods! Would you believe the doctor still insisted I had IBS and needed to take pills? Unbelievable! Glutamate's occur naturally in tomatoes too! Tomatoes also have anti-cancer properties! There's good and bad in everything! Go with what your body tells you!

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Here is what Bragg's had to say about it. Thank you for your interest in Bragg Products. We do not add any MSG to our products however there is natural occurring msg from the soybeans used in our products, which may result in msg reactions. We apologize for any inconvenience this brings. -- Wishing you Health, Peace and Happiness Bragg Customer Service http://www.bragg.com , Jae Jones <recyclednew wrote: > > I don't get the headache unless I really eat a lot of it!
