monosodium glutamate msg e621

There are many rumors about MSG, and it can be confusing to know what’s true and what’s not. A few people think that MSG causes headaches or various other health problems, such as stomach aches or allergic reactions. However, research conducted by scientists have found no definitive evidence that this is true. Another common misconception is that MSG is exclusive to Chinese food; it can actually be found in a variety of foods, from snacks and sauces to some frozen meals!

MSG (monosodium glutamate) is a flavor-booster food additive. It is created by combining three substances: sodium (a variety of salt), glutamic acid (found in many proteins) and water. MSG is hidden in many of the foods we eat daily, such as canned soups and potato chips, snack foods, frozen dinners. Even at home, some people prefer to add MSG, which can enhance the flavor and even make the food taste better. It’s as if you are sprinkling stardust.

What it is and where it's found

Many consider MSG to be dangerous for our health, and whilst there is some evidence for this, it is really not so simple and straightforward. There are some studies that show MSG may trigger headaches or other health problems in some people, but there are many other studies that have not found a clear connection between MSG and these issues. First off, it’s good to know that most people can eat MSG without worry, according to many health agencies, including the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). They have examined a lot of studies, and their verdict is that MSG is safe to eat.

MSG has been used in food long before, but in past years, it has gained more attention and the controversy after. The safety of MSG came into question during the 1960s, when scientists found that certain types of MSG could inflict brain damage in mice. But other studies found this to be the case only when mice were injected with massive doses of MSG — far larger than we could consume as humans. So yes, MSG is generally considered safe for humans to eat in normal amounts.
