Does anyone else get these? I've found that any free-glutamate food causes me to twitch (in moderate doses) and fatigue (in high doses)
The worst offender so far was a packet of chips (yeast), and a very MSG-laden Italian restaurant meal.
I realize that the mayo-MSG myth is half based off racism, but I think there's a kernel of truth, which is that too much free-glutamate just causes cellular excitation. Meaning the cell is expending energy faster than it can create it.
I also get no symptoms when eating meat. It's specifically the free glutamates (imagine meat being whole wheat bread and soy sauce being white flour) which cause problems.
