FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

● Where did the name "R.T.N.C." come from ?

RTNC stands for Reaction-Triggering Neurotoxic Chemicals. This descriptive name was established as a "catch all" category heading to include all of the various chemicals/additives/ingredients which cause the same serious reactions. Because there are so many different and confusing names for these types of processed chemical ingredients, it was much easier to collect them all into one classification group which would be easier for consumers to identify: RTNCs.

Whether it's listed as Monosodium Glutamate (MSG), Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein (HVP), Carrageenan, Malt Extract, Natural Flavorings, Excitotoxins, Guar Gum, or any other Processed Free Glutamic Acid (PFGA)...

...they are all classified as RTNCs.

● Who created RTNC411.org and its website ?

The RTNC411.org website is maintained by a private group of concerned citizens with credentials in diverse fields such as the healthcare industry, the advertising world, and national politics. While our members hail from many different places and backgrounds, we are all united as victims of RTNCs. RTNC411.org is passionately dedicated to the cause of educating people everywhere about the dangers of RTNCs.

● If RTNCs are such a big problem, why don't more
people know about them already ?

The chemical additive business has been booming since the 1950's, but consumers are only now recognizing the link between RTNCs and many serious medical reactions. Of course, people are often reluctant to change their habits, even when faced with evidence and proof; cigarettes, Saccharin, and trans fats are still around, despite decades of documented dangers.

And of course, the manufacturers of RTNCs spend millions of dollars defending their products and assuring consumers that they're safe to eat. We know otherwise.
