Hello Everyone - Before I begin, I want you to know an audio version of this newsletter will be available in about a week. It will be provided as an internet radio program I plan to offer once a month. In the future you will be sent a link along with a brief message. Kathy & I have just returned from Peru and have quite a bit we're excited to share with you. I'm sending you this information because of something we just figured out. We felt it was important and might help someone.
I'm sharing with you a letter I just sent to our son. Recently he attended a party in Lima, Peru (where he now lives). During this celebration he ate a plate of Chinese food and drank several beers - too many from what we were told. Within an hour or so he became irrational and violent. No one could understand what was happening to him or why he turned into a monster. Before long, several men (including burley security guards) were unconscious on the floor. Unscathed and in a daze, our son walked away.
I should point out that our son is usually a very high spirited and creative person not prone to anger or aggressiveness. Instead, he loves to play music and is quick to help any who ask. He is usually a good, kind spirited person.
There were times we had seen similar behavior during the last few years he lived with us. We couldn't grasp what was wrong with him. At that time we had no idea what to do or how to manage the issue. Now we know... and thus, the reason for this letter.
We have found a link between MSG, alcohol and aggression (emotional instability).
In our son's case he would eat food known to contain MSG (most food contains lots of MSG these days - I am referring to fast food, chips or Chinese food in this story). Within a few minutes we would notice he changed from a relaxed, intuitive and fun loving person into a rude, aggressive and mean spirited jerk. If he were to add a beer, or other alcoholic beverage, he would become all the above without constraint. Angry and mean, we faced many challenges with his Jackal & Hyde disposition. Though deeply concerned, there were few answers nor little we could do.
Now we understand why... so, I'm sending the email (I sent him last night) to you and others who might have been with someone, or know of someone, who exhibited such behavior. These families are faced with a huge emotional burden. Though they love their friend or family member they have no idea what is wrong with them or how to help. In the end, families are broken, friendships are destroyed and people are hurt - emotionally or physically.
I plan to record an internet radio program in the weeks ahead to publicly discuss this issue which, either up close or at a distance, affects us all.
Each of us, our families and our friends are being poisoned. Some more rapidly than others because of what is being ingested. Each person is seriously affected depending on our age, health and tolerance to MSG, and other toxic ingredients (aspartame and so forth). No one is immune or safe from the effects because it is so harmful to us.
Kathy & I have always been vocal and proactive. Though we knew of the dangers of MSG, we weren't aware of the extraordinary effects of mixing this with alcohol. We simply never made that connection. I don't think many of us knew the effects of combining MSG and alcohol. To make matters worse, artificial sweeteners break down into alcohol once ingested. If you were to drink a diet pop and eat MSG laced food, you would have the same effect! Now consider a mixed drink with a diet beverage and a bag of chip and dip.
I believe you now have a good idea of my waking up to the seriousness of the situation you or someone you know might be encountering and likely unaware of. The information I found last night provided several answers for us. I hope it helps any who read this.
Potato chips and beer; hot-dogs and beer; Chip dip and beer...
These each contain enough MSG to seriously affect our moods and body chemistry for hours.
How many are in jail because of this? How many have divorced? How many children are on medication for ADD, allergies or other poison induced illness? Is the rise in domestic violence now explainable?
Perhaps you know someone who fits the model. If you're curious to answer these questions simply examine what they have been eating.
Recently, while visiting a grocery in Lima with our son's wife, Kathy witnessed dozens of folks clamoring to grab a recently re-stocked shelf of this spice. The brand name is Aji-No-Moto. Reading the ingredient label shows it is 99.9% pure MGG. According to our friends in Lima, it is added to everything by the spoon full. Everyone uses it. It really brings out the flavor in food... A half empty bottle was found sitting atop our son's refredigerator. The recently emptied bottle was found in the trash under the sink.
The information we set our son is just below. Please take a few minutes to educate yourself and, if you feel it is valuable, pass it on.
Best Wishes
Jerry Wills
Ps... I have that half emptied botttle of pure MSG now sitting here on my desk. I'll post pictures of it soon.

All alcohol contains small amounts of
processed free glutamic acid (MSG)
The intensity or severity of a reaction to MSG appears to be affected by
alcohol ingestion and/or exercise just prior to,
or immediately following, MSG ingestion
"Because alcohol was taken with the MSG laced food, it
increased the severity and onset of the symptoms."
"...Because of this, alcohol use is not encouraged for those
who are borderline Vitamin B6 deficient, or MSG sensitive."
Here are some website's that should be translated into Spanish --- Or, at the very least you must read these to Liliana. The subject is MSG and Artificial Sweeteners... I hope this helps. Incidentally, here is a list of symptoms induced by MSG. I think you'll find yourself (and probably others you know) on this list...
MSG Symptoms: Are you on this list?
headaches
migraines
stomach upset
nausea and vomiting
diarrhea
irritable bowel syndrome
asthma attacks
shortness of breath
anxiety or panic attacks
Irrational anger attack
heart palpitations
partial paralysis
heart attack-like symptoms
balance difficulties
mental confusion
mood swings
neurological disorders (Parkinson's, MS, ALS, Alzheimer's)
behavioral disorders (especially in children and teens)
allergy-type symptoms
skin rashes
runny nose
bags under the eyes
flushing
mouth lesions
depression
NOW, MIX THESE SYMPTOMS WITH ALCOHOL - WHAT DO YOU SUPPOSE WOULD HAPPEN? AN EMOTIONAL BOMB GOES OFF!
Does this sound familiar son? Your mom & I, and family, love you. Please take the information that follows to heart. Your situation is not unmanageable and CAN be corrected, eliminated and never revisited. Be aware of the food you're eating, the beverages you're drinking and the company you're keeping. You, like so many of us, have been poisoned. Remember, it can only happen again if YOU decide to ignore the data.
You have a gift to bring the world. That gift is you, your music and the inspiration you can provide others. It is now time for you to be a role model. Set the example and let everyone know their unlimited potential by showing them your ability to attain this place of honor. You want fame and recognition? This will come as you begin to understand the best is brought forth from others by giving them the best of you. Everyone (one person or a million) enjoys being in the presence of someone they feel happy around.
I hope this helps... You have some reading to do.
We Love You...
Dad

Interesting articles excerpted:
In all species tested, immature animals were found to be much more vulnerable to MSG's toxic effects. Dr. Olney was shocked to learn that the concentrations of this substance added to commercial baby foods was equal to that which created brain lesions in the experimental models.

Anecdotal data on MSG and aspartame toxicity indicates that one of the sensitivity symptoms can be the swelling of cartilage and tendons, causing extreme pain in joints and muscles, especially the feet and legs. Although I had done everything I could to avoid MSG for eight years, I had not always been completely successful for false labeling would sometimes catch me by surprise. As the pain in my legs was ever increasing, I began using Pascalite while maintaining my vigil to avoid further exposure to the toxins. Within three days, the pain in my feet and legs had appreciably decreased. By the fifth day, the pain was gone. I can now walk freely with no pain or support.

Aspartic acid (aspartame) and glutamate (ingredient in monosodium glutamate) have been labeled as excitotoxins, which Dr. Russell Blaylock, author of Excitotoxins: The Taste That Kills, defines as "a group of excitatory amino acids that can cause sensitive neurons to die" (226). An article in the Orlando Sentinel Tribune states, "according to Blaylock, a single meal may contain several of these additives . . . given a high enough dose can include brain lesions." Blaylock is concerned that "hundreds of millions of infants and young children are at great risk and their parents are not even aware of it" (qtd. In Bonvie and Bonvie G1).
During the fifteen years that I thought aspartame (Equal) to be "safe", I gained sixty pounds. I believe that part of this weight (a dangerous legacy) is a significant quantity of FORMALDEHYDE and water that my body stored as part of my body fat. In addition, despite the fact of aging and the crippling effects of arthritis-like pains... I still ate everything that my lovely wife piled on my plate.
That makes for a "triple-whammy! Crave more carbohydrates (per congressional testimony); store formaldehyde with water in the fat; and constant caloric intake as one slows down from the increased pains
