Excitotoxins are biochemical substances (usually amino acids, amino acid analogs, or amino acid derivatives) that can react with specialized neuronal receptors - glutamate receptors - in the brain or spinal cord in such a way as to cause injury or death to a wide variety of neurons (1-3,8-10).

Read the article at http://www.smart-drugs.com/ias-excitotoxins.htm
There is also a book called "Excitotoxins: The Tast that Kills" that covers this subject.

Artificial sweeteners and flavor enhancers are all excitotoxins. This is everything from nutra-sweet in diet cola to most snack foods and a whole load of stuff inbetween.
Pretty much any flavored snack food contains MSG. This is basically glutamate, which is normally incorporated in amino acid chains in foods that we eat everyday like meat and mushrooms. But MSG(and its relatives) is a free form glutamate that has the excitotoxic effect.

Any ingredient list containing the following is an excitotoxic product:

Monosodium Glutamate (MSG); disodium guanylate (potentiator for MSG)

Hydrolyzed Protein:

(plant, vegetable, any kind)

Sodium or Calcium Caseinate

Autolyzed Yeast, Yeast Extract

Yeast Food, Yeast Nutrient

Textured Protein

Glutamic Acid

NATURAL FLAVORS, flavoring, flavors,

Natural "anything" flavor.

Bouillon or Stock

Broth (chicken, beef, any kind)

Carrageenan

Whey protein, whey protein concentrate, whey protein isolate.

Soy sauce, soy protein isolate, soy protein concentrate.

Malt Extract or Flavoring, Malted Barley

Maltodextrin

anything Protein fortified


This is a partial list.
