Ginger may protect the brain from Monosodium Glutamate

  

  For thousands of years ginger has been hailed as a superfood for its healing properties that aid every system of the body. The oils that ginger contains are antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal and ginger has been found to inhibit cancer growth. In addition to this ginger can offer protection towards the damage that is caused by a known harmful excitotoxin which is called monosodium glutamate.

 Injection of monosodium glutamate can cause significant depletion of epinephrine, norepinephrine, dopamine and serotonin. Low levels of these important neurotransmitters can be significantly detrimental to human health.

 Monosodium glutamate is widely used as a cheao flavour enhancer in many processed foods. However there are many negative side effects.

  • Headaches
  • Migraines 
  • Eye damage
  • Fatigue
  • Drowsiness
  • Anaphylaxis
  • Seizures
  • Depression
  • Numbness
  • Muscle spasms
  • Nausea
  • Rashes
  • Rapid heartbeat
  • Breath difficulty
