This 60 Minutes report was recommend by a Real Food Channel subscriber.

What really struck me was how little has changed since this report was made in 1991.

MSG is still hidden in thousands of processed foods.

The FDA and the food industry still say MSG poses no health risks.

About the only thing that has changed is the ever-growing mountain of evidence that MSG isn’t safe for anyone.

Can you imagine this on TV today?

A 1970s routine by comedian Marshall Efron when people could still tell the truth on national TV.

This particular show ran on PBS, but he also had a weekly show on CBS from 1973 to 1977.

These days he’d be lucky to be able to post to YouTube without having his channel banned by Pro-Pie Activists (funded by the Pie Industry.)

The truth about chicken.

Americans have been encouraged to eat chicken as a “healthy” alternative to red meat.

Here’s what they’re eating:

A sponge for toxins and pharmaceuticals.

There’s a reason chicken is so cheap in the stores – and it’s not a good one.

By the way, one of the biggest producers of chicken in the US is Arkansas-based Tyson Foods with whom the Clinton were very, very friendly.

Why?

“Under the guidance of an attorney representing Tyson Foods, Hillary Clinton made a $98,540 profit from a $1,000 initial investment in less than one year trading commodity futures. While $98,540 may not seem like much money relative to the Clinton family’s wealth today, it exceeded Bill and Hillary’s combined annual income at the time.”

Why we say “Don’t eat packaged food”

A talk by Dr. Russell Blaylock, a retired neurosurgeon.

You’ve probably heard that MSG is not good for you.

What may not know is how bad it is and how often you consume it.

Here are all the ways it’s not good for you. MSG consumption has been linked to: 1) obesity, 2) fatty liver, 3) high insulin and blood sugar, 4) high cholesterol, 5) metabolic syndrome, 6), high blood pressure, 7) disturbances in the gut-brain connection, 8) neurological and brain health issues.

It’s found in baby food and in vaccines!

What may not know is all the names it’s given to fool you into thinking it’s not in your food. Many of them are found in expensive so called health foods.

A neurotoxin that should have never been sold to the public

What costs pennies, makes garbage food taste great, and is implicated in a wide range of neurological problems?

MSG or monosodium glutamate.

But stop…before you say “I never eat that”, there’s something you need to know.

It’s in virtually every packaged food – including so called “health foods.”

Our government regulatory agencies have allowed Big Food manufacturers to call it different things.

Ever seen any of this in a ingredients list?

“Flavor or flavoring…soy protein…barley malt…pectin..corn starch or yeast extract”

Good news: You can take it out of your diet today – forever – and never miss it.

How profound is making this change?

In an admittedly limited study, taking it out of the diet’s of 75 autistic children resulted in the elimination of autistic traits in 74 cases in just five weeks.

Eat well and don’t let your doctor injure you

An interesting short talk from a doctor much maligned by Big Pharma and the Junk Food industry.

Here’s the takeaway:

You can eat 100% perfectly, but if you don’t get this one thing right, you can still run into problems.

What’s that one thing?

Dealing with doctors and the ineffective and dangerous drugs and surgeries they peddle when you’re at your most vulnerable.

Useful for manufacturers, for you…not so much

Table sugar is a refined chemical, not a food. C12-H22-O11 to be exact.

Though chemically different, it is not unlike heroin or cocaine which are the super refined products of the poppy and coca bush.

Table sugar is the super refined product of sugarcane or beet beets.

By themselves, there is nothing wrong or dangerous about any of these plants.

The economics of refining sugar is compelling, especially when done at scale.

Sugar which is manufactured in vast quantities is cheap. As an ingredient it covers many sins and makes a lot of otherwise unpalatable, non-nutritious food taste appealing. It’s a food manufacturers dream and in one form or another it’s in everything.

Then along came high fructose corn syrup, an even more poisonous substance – and even cheaper.

A 20th century coup

The acronym OMD means “one meal a day.”

Eating just one meal a day is popular among health conscious people and you can find a lot about it on the Internet.

Bottom line: It’s enough to keep you fueled, it teaches your body to burn fat and not live on sugar, and, perhaps most important, it gives you digestive system and the rest of your body a rest.

Eating one meal a day is how people used to eat hundreds of years ago – until the marketers got a hold of breakfast.

Who were these marketers? Some pretty twisted people.

The science behind eating one meal per day
