Cravings are a side effect of getting MSG and HFCS in any type of

should get better or even disappear.

Morning Linn

Apologies if i was a bit terse in my emails yesterday (to everyone that is!)

- I hope today will be a bit better for me.

When I am feeling so bad it is hard for me to explain myself properly.

As to the cravings, these were happening even eating non-processed food Linn

though I am sure you are right in that additives can set them off.

So basically, even with a reasonably good diet, I was having cravings

big-time.

The point of the PGX was to

a. help with the insulin resistance as I have concerns about sliding into

diabetes and forestall the use of Metformin.

b. help me lose weight because of my continuing high BP.

c. help raise my self-esteem.

d. help me lose the cravings so that I don't continue to keep putting on the

lbs. as I have put on 15 lbs since the earlier 28 lbs weight loss in the

Spring.

e. help me lose the fatty liver.

I have written to the manufacturers and will be interested to hear their

take on why the bulge has remained.
