MSG is about sensitivity. It is not safe for those sensitive to it. The logic is that glutamate is highly excitatory in the brain, in everyone's brain. Sensitive persons have lost the ability to regulate glutamate too well. Others do fine.
- wenc 2y agoNo. Some people are sensitive to it yes. But it is not unsafe. There are no proven long term effects and no treatment is needed. (Some people are also sensitive to sugar like me — due to gout — but sugar is not unsafe) Please read the research claims critically instead of posting a knee jerk reaction.
- OutOfHere 2y agoYou don't look to know the first thing about excitotoxicity or even about glycotoxicity. If you keep abusing excitotoxins, they have a kindling effect which will cause brain damage and seizures in the long term. With sugar, similarly there is diabetes. Your gout is a hard indication that you have failed to filter your diet.
