Fat, Stressed, and Sick

Presents the scientific evidence that glutamate-aka MSG-in processed food contributes to a suite of preventable inflammatory diseases. The idea that large amounts glutamate in the diet jeopardizes health is supported by decades of research, despite efforts by the glutamate industry to discredit the scientific evidence that MSG poses a risk. This book explains the science behind why we crave the MSG in processed food, why it is hidden, how it is making us sick, and what we can do about it.
