I'm concerned about my intake of foods with monosodium glutamate (MSG) in it. Is MSG harmful to a person?

Low intake of msg is better

Monosodium glutamate is found in most Asian and some processed foods as a flavor enhancer. Its like in its name - sodium is salt.

Like most unnatural foods, its best to play it safe and not intake too much of it. Use it as a spice but I wouldn't go putting it on everything I eat.
