Hi All,
I developed vitiligo on my armpits some years ago... I have also allergy to MSG. This allergy has become worse in reactions through the years.
I noticed one ay that my deodorant Secret (very common) had MSG!!!
I was putting on my skin what makes me feel so sick when I eat it.
Immediately stopped and use a truly natural one. Just by doing that I have been gaining some solor.
I want to share this to see if someone has a similar experience...
Also I use a cream called meladinina like 6 usd!!
and use a lamp 50usd.
I havent use the lamp for months now... I get tired from time to time, but got good results.... but this past months is when I stopped the dirty deodorant and without the lamp I have seen improvement. I am happy!

Hey again I paste this very good explnation that I found:
For those of you that don't believe MSG and it's hidden additives aren't harmful to everyone I urge you to read "Excitotoxins: The Taste That Kills".
Excitotoxins destroy your brain and body over time. For some people symtptoms could be a "headache" or minor pain. For others it can be anything from depression, anxiety to ADD/Autism ect.
MSG is not natural. The "natural" glutamate you're thinking of is the "bound form" called "glutamic acid" which exists naturally in meat and nature.
"Free Glutamic Acid" aka "MSG" is an isolated version of "glutamic acid" that is NOT natural and is factory created. This is the neurotoxic harmful version that should be avoided like the plague.
It's an excitotoxin like aspartame. It literally overexcites the brain to cell death. Leaving the person feeling tons of symptoms that could take 2 to 24 hours to manifest.
Please read that book, right now the effects of excitotoxins on the brain is the most studied thing by neurologist today. There is tons of proof that it's a very harmful neurotoxin.
The book "Excitotoxins: The Taste That Kills" will change your outlook on MSG forever. Once you see the truth you will be SHOCKED.
MSG damage is not a myth, it's real.
MSG is present in what we call nightshades. We definitely have to avoid it, specially tomatoes and potatoes.
Monosodium glutamate (MSG, also known as sodium glutamate) is the sodium salt of glutamic acid, one of the most abundant naturally-occurring non-essential amino acids.[Manuf. 1] MSG is found in tomatoes, Parmesan,potatoes, mushrooms, and other vegetables and fruits.[1]
Yes, but the problem is not in this natural sources, but when is lab produced is very different...
MSG is not glutamic acid, any more than table salt is sodium. Rather, MSG is a salt made WITH glutamic acid. That's what the "monosodium" part means--the glutamic acid has been joined to a sodium atom. I'm curious how often salts made with proteins occur in nature and, if they aren't that common, whether that's why some people react so badly to MSG--if a protein salt is kind of a freak of nature, of course some of us won't deal with it well.
MSG's always made in a lab. Glutamic acid is naturally occurring.
