Busted! KFC, Chick-fil-A, Burger King and other fast food restaurants caught using huge quantities of MSG...

Monosodium glutamate, otherwise known as MSG, is a common ingredient in our food, and this is especially true for fast food.

Technically speaking, MSG is the sodium salt of glutamic acid, and it's a widely used flavor-enhancer. Many people associate it with Chinese food, but in reality, it's used just about everywhere.

What many don't know is that MSG is the most common form of amino acid and it naturally occurs in our bodies. But the MSG we find in our foods is processed, and as such, it can cause a number of adverse health reactions like asthma, hives, skin rashes, vomiting, heart irregularities and even seizures. Dr. Russell Blaylock calls MSG an "excitotoxin" that kills brain cells and damages neurology.

So which fast food restaurants use the most MSG? In this investigation we examine the worst MSG offenders in the fast-food industry. Full story...
