Processed Food Caused A Wave


[bo...]

Recommended Posts

Is it possible for processed food to cause a wave? I got home from work today and felt the usual bad and then I ate Cheetohs. Now I feel like I can't think or move. Honestly, I feel like I'm on the brink of a nervous breakdown and I'm scared. What if I have a nervous breakdown? What would that feel like?

I'm feeling really horrible. I'm unable to interact with my family right now and my parents are visiting. Usually it's not this bad. Horrible head pressure and no ability to think. I'm worried. I've not felt like this before.

It’s the MSG.  You will have to be very careful from now on to avoid that stuff like crazy.  When that happened to me, it put me in the worst possible condition like you’re saying. Fortunately this reaction won’t last long, you should be out of it by tomorrow.  I’m sorry you have this sensitivity but it’s pretty normal for where you’re at.  Just make it through the night and you’ll be okay.  I know it’s hard but you can do it.

It's MSG. Drink plenty of water and eat an apple or something that's not triggering, to dilute MSG in your system.

Yeah, I'm considering it. It's been a long time. Pretty worried I'm dealing with postpartum depression on top of benzo stuff.

You are dealing with postpartum depression??

I just find it odd that my daughter is such a trigger for me. I have a hard time being around here since this all started.

Cheetos and Doritos, among many other processed foods, contain lots of MSG, which is like the crack cocaine version of glutamate. Goes straight to the brain. You’ll be fine in a few days once it leaves your system.    :thumbsup:

I avoid anything that’s processed or contains MSG. I eat a lot of protein. Organic, free range chicken breast mostly and pinto and black beans.
