Well my hope is that some people will do research and help prolong the years (healthy ones) of their lives. I myself wouldn't say to avoid all of them (trans fat & MSG) at all cost cause it's damn near impossible, but by reading labels and being more aware of what goes in your body, you CAN reduce greatly the amounts of MSG and trans fats in your diet. Look at most of the proteins out there. What r u really paying for? Most of them have over 15 ingredients, and what business besides fillers and preservatives do they have in your powder, let alone your body. Then read something like Jay Robb's protein powder. He only has about 5 ingredients total that make up his powder, and it's better than most of the others filled with MSG and hidden trans fats for supposed "taste" or lower cost or w/e.
Bottom line, I feel people aren't as bright as they used to be, and what's allowed to be on store shelves these days is largely to blame. Ever hear the expression "ignorance is bliss?" Well, I'm afraid that's the mantra now, but I choose to know the truth and not stay quiet nor stupid. Do as you want, and..
..believe it or not. It's your choice.
