Is MSG safe to use?

One of the most demonised ingredients in india is MSG. Again, this reel is not asking you to eat MSG, but use the nature of the scaremongering about it as a lesson in learning to distinguish between science and pseudoscience on social media. The Glutamate in MSG is an amino acid! And amino acids are building blocks of protein. Every source of protein will likely have some glutamate. MSG is simply the sodium salt. When free glutamates hit our tongue, they cause a lingering, savoury sensation that we are familiar with from ramen, chicken soup, seafood or for that matter, tomato based dishes. This is what is called the umami taste. Yes, there are studies that have shown that in large amounts, free glutamates have some negative effects, but have you read studies on the effects of consuming salt and sugar in large amounts? Have you considered how much more salt and sugar you consume on a daily basis? If you just pause for a moment and ask 2 basic statistical questions 1. How much am i actually eating as part of a balanced, sensible diet? 2. Am I already eating it in various other forms without realising it? Yeast extract, hydrolysed protein and “flavour enhancers” in most food packaging is glutamates! All they are doing is pandering to your fear of that specific term - MSG. Stop being afraid of food. And stop paying attention to clickbaity scaremongering. All of east Asia eats MSG as a food additive and live 20 years on average longer than most Indians (who end up dying earlier from too much salt and sugar, ironically).
