But I've never liked salty or black-sauce laden food, so we steer quite clear of them. Definitely would restrict son's sugar intake 1-2 hours before nap or bedtime, including fruits like grapes, to prevent him from turning hyper.MieVee @ MummysReviews.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15072066999164946133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1072099236937422307.post-73685848119733492532011-10-06T19:57:31.687+08:002011-10-06T19:57:31.687+08:00Msg is naturally occurring but coz it tastes good ...Msg is naturally occurring but coz it tastes good so people concentrate and add it to food. When it is in excess, that's when trouble starts. <br /><br />E does bounce off the walls with msg and too much sugar.

She can cry bitterly for abt 20 mins non stop and there is nothing I can do. However I do notice that if she does not have her afternoon nap or something unpleasant happen during the day, the likelihood of night terror increases. I will observe if msg has an impact on her n keep u posted if any. Thanks for your sharing, have benefitted a lot.<br /><br />SummerblissAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1072099236937422307.post-6395050296136515162011-10-04T09:11:55.813+08:002011-10-04T09:11:55.813+08:00Hmm, this is very interesting indeed.

I thought it had something to do with him being overtired or heaty. But will monitor if it's diet-related! <br /><br />My husband and I concluded that eating the food from some of our usual eating haunts (even though they taste very good) make us feel a bit sick after. So we are definitely not patronising these places again!olimomoknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1072099236937422307.post-58266501219157129552011-10-04T04:34:03.362+08:002011-10-04T04:34:03.362+08:00Too much MSG (e.g. Drinking the soup with it) make...Too much MSG (e.g. Drinking the soup with it) makes me thirsty thus unable to sleep well at night. The Chinese food in western countries might have more msg than the ones here (at least it is so in NZ). Hence if it is my first time eating at that eatery, I'll avoid consuming too much of the sauce or soup especially if it tastes really nice hehe... As for the kids, I haven't thought of that. Will start to observe.CEnoreply@blogger.com
