This is the worst article I’ve ever read
MSG gives me crazy migraines.
Hope it doesn’t get put in too many things
My Mom says it does the same to her. Then she eats Dorito chips or uses a seasoning in it that has MSG and nothing happens. When I point that out she is still convinced that it gives her migraines and maybe those things just don’t have enough of it.
🤷
Same with my wife and I put MSG in some stuff that I make and she never complains but trust me, I know when she gets headaches or migraines. Not that I did it on purpose. It came up when she saw me bring in 2 lbs. of it and I’m just thinking to myself that she apparently has no idea that I use it somewhat commonly.
FWIW, I get a seriously intense headache precisely 9 seconds after eating a large pinch of MSG (because it’s so tasty). It completely goes away 10 seconds later. I have no doubt it can cause headaches (in at least some people), and everyone denying it looks ridiculously sanctimonious to me.
I bet there are some self-delusions about these headaches, but they’re not 100% fake. You’re being just as foolish denying them as the people who are 100% sure they’re all real. Reactions can differ from person to person.
This silly article doesn’t even discuss the fact that Dr Kwok was a made up person and the entire premise of MSG being bad for you was a staged prank to get an article published without peer review.
Give this a listen.
Are you the author of this?
I believe so, as OP’s post history shows more articles from the same author.
That was my feeling as well. I was trying to give them the benefit of the doubt. They have not replied. I have no issue with self promotion as long as there is disclosure and it is not excessive.
So, with that said, and with no reply, this fucking blog post in ‘health’ is a total steaming pile.
