Excitotoxins

The Taste That Kills

De: Russell L. Blaylock

Narrado por: Tom Weiner

Ex·cí·to·tox·in: a substance added to foods and beverages that literally stimulates neurons to death, causing brain damage of varying degrees. Can be found in such ingredients as monosodium glutamate, aspartame (NutraSweet®), cysteine, hydrolyzed protein, and aspartic acid.

Citing over five hundred scientific studies, Excitotoxins explores the dangers of aspartame, MSG, and other substances added to our food. This is an electrifying and important book that should be available to every American consumer.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Detailed and well-researched, yet is written in such a fashion the nonmedical person will come away with a good understanding of the subject.” ( Medical Sentinel)

A great book

This is a great book and has a ton of information on the awful nutrition that plagues the west. I recommend it.

This book was way ahead of it's time.

Excellent book! A cross between a reference book (so much useful information) and an expose report. It's rather sad that we didn't heed any of the warnings. This book was written many years ago, yet almost every prepared product, side dish, cereal, spice, sauce packet, and even gummy vitamins I pick up in the past week has, at the very least, "natural flavorings." Remember we let this happen. :(

If you care about your health and that of you family own this book

This is a book for our time. It is a significant part of the explanation of why the increasing rate of neuro-degenerative diseases and other chronic health issues.

Own this book, study this book, and live this book. You will be glad you did.

Spread the word and help other people improve their families well-being for generations to come.

Great book!

A must read for anybody concerned about exitotoxicity. It has both the science and practical advice.

Long, boring lecture on MSG

I enjoyed the connection between starvation on a Pacific island during WWII which caused poor preparation of a staple crop, which caused the severe symptoms of ALS. I also found useful a few other connections. None of it got me to the end.

I did finish, but only because I used this audio to fall asleep many times. That had nothing to do with the narrator. The author went on for twelve hours about MSG, it's toxic affects, and how diet foods are poisioning our children. With that point, I agree. I do not need to be told the same thing ten different ways, however.
