Changes

'''Food additives''' are used to enhance [[flavor]] and appearance of [[food]], which may cause '''[[addiction]]'''. In the early days, [[Coca-Cola]] contained the highly addictive [[drug]] of [[cocaine]] and [[Chinese food]] used the [[addictive]] flavor enhancer of [[MSG]] (many Chinese still use it since MSG is not illegal). Food and drugs are a frightening combination because everyone has to eat, but then everyone has the chance of becoming addicted, even children. MSG is the cause of [[autism]] and [[ADHD]] in children.<ref>http://www.laleva.org/eng/2004/03/autism_and_adhd_linked_to_addictive_food_additive.html</ref> The [[Food and Drug Administration]] (FDA) regulates.

For the safety of children and people, we must address the addition of addictive additives. There are more dangers there than [[trans fats]] and [[obesity]].

Many types of readymade food, and especially [[Chinese food]], used the possibly [[addictive]] flavor enhancer  [[MSG]] (monosodium glutamate). Though it is [[generally recognized as safe]] by the [[Food and Drug Administration]] (the agency which regulates the usage of such additives in the [[United States]]), MSG has been implicated as a cause [[autism]] and [[ADHD]] in children, as well as many other ailments.<ref>Laleva.org, [http://www.laleva.org/eng/2004/03/autism_and_adhd_linked_to_addictive_food_additive.html Autism and ADHD Linked to Addictive Food Additive]</ref>
