Is MSG the reason for so many barang heart attacks?
Is MSG the reason for so many barang heart attacks?
I’ve been reading about deaths in PP and noticing a lot of younger guys 20-35 dropping dead from supposed heart attacks. Is MSG the culprit for these young deaths? How do you expats deal with avoidance of MSG?

Ice, heroin and sleeping pills. Last time I read up on it, MSG wasn't thought to be harmful to health.

As far as I am concerned, MSG intolerance is the same sort of thing like gluten intolerance: bullocks.

I don't think you can avoid it 100% (unless you are only eating in mid range up restaurants all they time).
I don't think I get much MSG in my diet but undoubtedly I get some.
Occasionally I will get a pounding headache for no obvious reason... I put this down to too much (or too little) recent MSG.
I have banned it in my house, but I know my niece and nephew use it... We've come to a kind of truce where I don't complain as long as it doesn't enter my food.

No, it has nothing to do with MSG.
Younger folks here dabble in other white powders and substances beyond their knowledge & no scruples from suppliers to add 'packing' to the deal with no idea of the consequences.
To die from MSG I'd imagine you'd have to be exposed to it for a lifetime, and even then, how do you account for countries that have eaten MSG for decades don't have a very different mortality rate than the West?

It’s a myth perpetuated by an American study in the late 60s. They called it Chinese food syndrome. Utter bollocks.

Surely a daily lifestyle of 50cent draft, cheap tobacco and heavy diesel pollution has its part in this, if not the hi-grade recreational drugs sold to the unsuspecting customer these parts.
Alcohol, cigarettes, other drugs - MSG doesn't even register in the big scheme of things.
MSG is not the reason many barangs die in Phnom Penh.
GSM is the reason many barangs die in Phnon Penh.

well high levels of salt are a real problem for some of the population. what's so different about high levels of MSG? why lump it in with gluten rather than salt?

Did you know that Viagra/ Sildenafil/Karmegra etc can lower your blood pressure to such a low level that you can pass out for several hours and even pass away all together. But, hopefully with a smile on your corpse?
So be very careful with your daily dosages.
