Why isn't MSG recommended for pregnant women, child bearing age women, infants and children?


Why isn't MSG recommended for pregnant women, child bearing age women, infants and children?Just curious, what effects can it have? Does this have anything to do with the common myth that eating Chinese food in early pregnancy can cause miscarriage?
MSG is not "good" for anyone, but it is especially not reccommended for pregnant women and young children. It is also not reccommended for infants, people with emotional/psychological issues or women of child bearing age!...I just read it in an article about using aborted fetal tissue in MMR, chicken pox, and polio vaccinations. These vaccinations also include MSG.

It's a preservative, like salt, same kind of complications, and it causes wicked migraines if you suffer from them

Msg is high sodium hence can cause elevated blood pressure. Pregnant woman are told to stay away from it because of that and that due to their condition they are prone to having a real bad reaction (allergy).

Woman tend to have allergic reactions to msg more then men. It can cause, nausea, headaches, vomiting, heart palpitation, migraines, tightening of the chest and shortness of breath. You may even sometimes feel a weird tingling or burning sensation of the scalp.

It is not recommended to eat foods containing msg on an empty stomach or in large quantities either.

Hope this helps.
