Interesting indeed.
A pregnant mother eating food with MSG in her first trimester can lead to autism :blink: You should see how much chinese food I ate (w/ MSG) during my entire pregnancy :faint:
I'll be reading up on this :)


BTW, shopping at Whole Foods, Trader Joes or smaller local health food stores helps in finding food w/o all the 'junk'... :wave:

Yuck. Chinese is the WORST. I never ate Chinese....:puke: I won't eat it. Yeah, we're definitely hitting the natural food stores anymore.

: Oooh, I LOVE Chinese, but it was my worst enemy when I was pregnant. :burp: Of course, everything edible was my worst enemy when I was pregnant... :dunno:
