It is very
important for everyone to keep and maintain a healthy body weight by making
sure you are within the required BMI for your height. There is no gain saying
that overweight or obesity seriously predisposes you to equally serious health
issues such as hypertension and heart attacks, etc.
Experts say
that apart from doing your exercises, avoiding sedentary lifestyle, minimizing your
consumption of fatty foods, etc, it has also become very important you are
alarmed about the negative effects food additives such as monosodium glutamate
(MSG), can have on your health. MSG is an excitotoxin. It makes you fat! This
might be news to you; but yes, MSG can actually cause all kinds of medical problems
for you. It can also affect your mood; it can make you depressed.

Unknowing to
many in Nigeria, MSG is the basic raw material at the base of most of what we
call food seasonings. The white seasonings for all you know, is really the very
raw MSG itself! MSG can also be physically addicting, like aspartame; nutritional
health experts say it can actually make you hungrier. This means it can make
you eat all you do not really intend to eat – and there goes your weight
problem if you do not watch it.
