Excitotoxins & Genetically Modified Organisms 5 – Excitotoxins & Genetically Modified Organisms INITIATING TRUE SPEED HEALING – EXCITOTOXINS AND GMO Ways of practicing the healing art: 1-Nutrition 2-Exercise 3-Water 4-Sunshine 5-Temperance 6-Fresh air 7-Rest 8-Trust in God CORRUPTION TO OUR FOOD SUPPLY: Corruption is happening to our food supply and the information may seem a little bit discouraging and depressing but take an attitude that this is knowledge. That is going to empower you to make better choices which will have a positive impact on health. Look at the information from the positive side instead of from the negative side. It is very overwhelming, discouraging and depressing. CHEMICALS AND BRAIN DAMAGE: What if someone were to tell you that a chemical added to food could cause brain damage to your children and that this chemical could affect how your children’s nervous systems formed during development so that in later years they may have learning or emotional difficulties? What if there was scientific evidence that these chemicals could damage a critical part of the brain known to control hormones so that later in life your child might have endocrine problems? Excitotoxins & GMO Disclaimer and References on Last Page Page 1 BRAIN TUMORS AND ARTIFICIAL SWEETENERS: Suppose evidence was presented to you strongly suggesting that the artificial sweetener in your diet soft drinks may cause brain tumors to develop and could cause the same brain lesions as MSG? NEURO-DEGENERATIVE BRAIN DISEASES: What if it could demonstrated that all of these types of chemicals could possibly aggravate or even precipitate many of the neurodegenerative brain diseases such as Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease, ALS, and Alzheimer’s disease? Would you be upset to learn that these additives have no other purpose than to enhance the taste of food simply to boost sales? EXCITOTOXINS: Excitotoxins are something that had just in the very recent past become made more aware and that is due largely to Dr. Russell L. Blaylock, and quotes from Dr. George Schwartz and Dr. John Olney. All of them have done research into the topic of excitotoxins. Dr. Blaylock has put out an interesting book which is called “Excitotoxins, the Taste that Kills”. It is a very excellent book to read to give you information on the subject of excitotoxins. WHAT ARE EXCITOTOXINS?: Excitotoxins are amino acids which in excess, cause neurons (nerve cells) to fire repeatedly, causing cell damage or death within 1 to 3 hours. Excitotoxins & GMO Disclaimer and References on Last Page Page 2 AMINO ACIDS: Amino acids are chemical building blocks used to create proteins. Proteins are used by the body for a variety of functions. Some form part of the membrane of the cell itself, while others may be used to form enzymes, hormones and components of various tissues. Proteins are used throughout our bodies and amino acids are simply the little building blocks. Proteins can be very simple or they can be thousands of amino acids in size. Another way of looking at, it is kind of like the letters of the alphabet. We have letters in the alphabet that we can pull together and form words. Your body will pull together amino acids to form proteins. EXCITOTOXINS-EXCESS AMINO ACIDS: Excitotoxins are these little building blocks of proteins but it is in excess. The amino acids themselves are not the problem. The problem is the excess of these amino acids and what these excess amino acids cause to happen. There are over 70 identified excitotoxins. The key ones glutamate and aspartate would be the two that probably you would be the most familiar with. Glutamate of course in the form of MSG and aspartate of course in the form of aspartame- NutraSweet. These are the most familiar forms. Excitotoxins are causing cell damage or death within our brains within 1 to 3 hours. It is a very short time that this damage is occurring. It is occurring in the areas where we have learning, cognitive thought, reason, memory. It is the higher centers of the brain where the damage is occurring. It is very disturbing and that it will prompt you to make healthier choices in your food. GLUTAMATE: Glutamate is an important neurotransmitter. Neurotransmitter allows neurons to communicate between each other. Glutamate is responsible for opening a calcium channel in the neurons so that calcium can move into the cell. The result is a number of important chemical reactions which stimulate connected neurons. Excitotoxins & GMO Disclaimer and References on Last Page Page 3 HYDROXYL AND ANTIOXIDANTS VITAMIN C, E AND BETA CAROTENE: One of the products of these chemical reactions results in the production of free radicals, one in particular Hydroxyl. Hydroxyl when left unchecked can kill brain cells. Fortunately, the free radicals are absorbed by antioxidant vitamins such as C, E and beta carotene. In a normal day to day living, there would be the production of these toxic free radicals within our bodies but thankfully God has a system in place which can offset that toxic by-products. GLUTAMATE AND CALCIUM CHANNELS: If glutamate levels become even slightly excessive, the calcium channels in some cells get stuck open, leading to the destruction of those cells and adjacent cells and that is where the problem lies. SEIZURES, STROKES, BRAIN INJURY, DEVELOPMENTAL DISORDERS AND EXCITOTOXINS: Dr. Russell L. Blaylock has this to say, “Today, virtually all of the neuro degenerative diseases are now considered to be intimately related to the excitotoxic process. Seizures, headaches, strokes, brain injury and developmental brain disorders are all intimately related to excitotoxins.” Dr. Russell L. Blaylock is a neurosurgeon and from his own experience and research, he is stating that all of these degenerative diseases that are so common and prevalent in our society today are basically all intimately related to the excitotoxic process. HOW DO EXCITOTOXINS GET IN THE FOOD?: Why would these excitotoxins be in the food that we consume anyway? How do they get in the food? Why would manufacturers want to put them in there if they are going to cause such a problem in our bodies? It is because these particular amino acids are stimulating. They cause the brain to have an enhanced sense of taste. Excitotoxins & GMO Disclaimer and References on Last Page Page 4 BRAIN – ORGAN OF TASTE: We do not actually taste with our mouths although that is where it appears that we taste. Our taste buds simply transmit a chemical signal to our brain and our brain then interprets that signal. So our brain is actually telling us if something tastes good or not. What is happening is that these excitotoxins are causing our brain, tricking our brain to think that something or food that is normally would not taste good, would not be appealing to us, these are now suddenly very appealing. Excitotoxins are amino acids often placed in foods such as diet foods. Diet foods once the sugar or the fat is taken out can be very bland tasting foods. And so they would put these amino acids in, in order to stimulate the brain sense of taste. Therefore the body thinks that this is something that tastes good, we think it tastes good and we will continue to eat it. Have you ever wondered about these diet foods? You can eat a whole chocolate cake and it only has 2 calories. Does it make you wonder? There is something wrong with that, something in the manufacturing process is wrong. PERSONS WHO SHOULD AVOID EXCESS FREE GLUTAMATE: -infants and children -pregnant women -hypoglycemia -low brain energy or brain fog -obesity -mood or psychological disorders -learning disabilities -seizures -headaches or migraines -immune system-related disorders Excitotoxins & GMO Disclaimer and References on Last Page Page 5 -vitamin or mineral deficiencies -women of child bearing age -hormone / endocrine gland related disorders -asthma or allergies -tinnitus or ringing in the ears -diseases of the brain such as Alzheimer’s disease -most other chronic diseases -health-conscious persons If you find yourself on that list, you should avoid excess free glutamate. It is something you want to stay away from. ADDITIVES THAT ALWAYS CONTAIN MONOSODIUM GLUTAMATE –MSG: Monosodium glutamate Hydrolyzed vegetable protein Hydrolyzed protein Hydrolyzed plant protein Plant protein extract Sodium caseinate Calcium caseinate Yeast extract Textured protein Autolyzed yeast Hydrolyzed oat flour Excitotoxins & GMO Disclaimer and References on Last Page Page 6 If you see hydrolyzed or autolyzed in the list of ingredients, you do not want to consume it. They sound harmless but they always contain MSG. Sodium caseinate or calcium caseinate often found in firm tofu. Yeast extract is the number one ingredient in Marmite seasoning. Anyone of those ingredients if you find them in labels, you want to avoid consuming them. MSG is not something that is causing damage 10 years down the road or 15 years down the road. Damage is happening to your brain cells within one to three hours of ingesting the substance into your body. That is rapid. MUHAMMAD ALI - PUNCH DRUNK AND CONCUSSION: Now you might think that it should not be a problem if few brain cells die, what is the big deal. It would not be something noticeable for one time or a couple of times. When brain cells die that is essentially what happens when you receive a concussion. Have you noticed something about Muhammad Ali when they are interviewing him. He is very slow in speaking. He has a hard time forming his words and his thoughts. There are lots of difficulties there and that is because he is what is called punch drunk. He has been hit in the head so many times, having received so many concussions that is actually noticeable and they call that punch drunk.

  • Monosodium Glutamate (MSG): from a to Umami
    FACT SHEET INTERNATIONAL FOOD INFORMATION COUNCIL FOUNDATION Monosodium Glutamate (MSG): From A to Umami Has there ever been a taste that you enjoyed, but couldn’t quite explain? Perhaps you are noticing what has been coined as the fifth taste, “uma- mi”; a taste attributed to foods containing glutamate, an amino acid that is one of the building blocks of protein. Think about a bowl of hot pasta with tomato sauce and Parmesan cheese, a freshly grilled steak with a rich mushroom sauce, or stir-fried seafood and chicken with crisp veg- etables in a savory soy sauce. In all of these dishes, there is a common flavor denominator that may be surprising to many: monosodium gluta- mate, also called MSG. Is Umami a Fifth Taste? Recent research shows that in addition to the four basic tastes of sweet, sour, salty, and Did YOU KNOW? bitter, there is a fifth basic taste called “umami” (in Japanese) that Americans describe as “savory.” n Research has identified “umami” as a fifth taste, commonly referred to as What is the History of Umami? savory. Although valued in ancient world cuisines for more than 2,000 years, the taste of umami was not identified until about 100 n Glutamate, an amino acid found in years ago. In 1908, Professor Kikunae Ikeda of Tokyo Imperial protein foods, is responsible for the University discovered that a simple molecule gives foods a umami flavor. distinctive savory taste. He was studying a seaweed broth n Tomatoes, Parmesan cheese, and called kombu, a traditional food in Japanese culture, and iden- walnuts naturally contain glutamate.

Commercially, free glutamate is available in form of monosodium glutamate (MSG) crystal. Seasoning or premix may also contain free glutamate or MSG. The aim of the present study was focus on the determination of the usage and potential/actual exposure of consumers to free glutamate from condi- ment and seasonings. There were several steps of the study, i.e. survey, laboratory analyses, data analyses, and evalua- tion of total exposure of free glutamate from condiment and seasonings. The survey was conducted to the 110 house- holds in Bogor (rural) and 112 households in Jakarta (urban). The samples of condiment/seasoning were analyzed by using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with fluorescent detector. The condiment/seasonings were categorized into 15 types, i.e. sweet soy sauce, salty soy sauce, fermented soybean paste, tomato sauce, MSG, premix seasoning, fermented fish/shrimp paste, chili sauce, ready to use seasoning, seasoned flour, dip and sauce, mayonnaise and mustard, spread, oyster and fish sauce, and teriyaki and others.

UBRAR:ES ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION Sensory and Functional Properties of Flavor Potentiators Flavor potentiators have been used for centuries to improve food flavor. However, neither the taste transduction mechanisms nor the behavior of flavor potentiators in food are fully understood. The objectives of this research were: 1. To determine the relationship between salivary glutamate and perception ofMSG and NaCl; 2. To characterize the time-intensity profiles (TI) of flavor potentiators; and, 3. To determine the effects of heat treatment and pH on levels ofL-glutamic acid in simple food systems. The first study consisted of collecting whole mouth saliva and determining thresholds to and perceived intensities ofMSG and NaCl. A preliminary experiment indicated that perception ofMSG may be influenced by salivary glutamate, gender, and ethnicity. The principal study with 60 subjects found no effect of ethnicity or gender on salivary glutamate or sodium levels. Female Asians had higher salivary sodium and rated the lower concentrations ofNaCl as more intense.
