Will Chinese food with MSG in it give me Parkinson's Disease?

I was tempted to post this in my "Brainless things people say on Facebook" thread, but it was actually posted in Yelp Talk:

If you don't care about getting MS, Parkinson's and Alzheimer then eat MSG. It will probably take 20 to 30 years to see the full effect. Those headaches are just warning signs. See http://Mercola.com.


The "natural health" site that person linked to didn't have anything on its front page about MSG, and I didn't care to dig deeper.

But you probably shouldn't use this as a condiment. Tell him the government sprays that into the con-trails.

Make sure eat that MSG laced poison with a nice Diet Coke.  Aspartame and MSG go GREAT together.
