We need to do everything in our power to give our kids healthy, nutritionally sound food. But there is another area that desperately needs our attention. What's missing is the focus on changing the way our food is produced. Many of the food that is advertised to kids (and adults) as healthy has hidden poisons in it in the form of MSG or monosodium glutamate and other artificial ingredients. These ingredients trick our brains into eating more, and thus, keep us fatter and sicker. These poisons and excitotoxins should first be exposed, and then eliminated from our food supply.
