What is MSG, and is it actually bad for you? - Sarah E. Tracy

Only WEAK westerners are afraid of MSG. Oh right they have Accent.

It would have been more appropriate if uncle roger had narrated this video 😅

The funniest thing from all of this is... americans complaining about MSG being "toxic" yet eat imitation food like McDonald's that has toxic preservatives including foods with immitation cheese

I don’t care whether or not MSG is good or bad, I just don’t want to consume it, that’s all!

By the way the guy that felt sick could have been for a condition that I have too. Migraines with auras, in fact, can be triggered by an intense consumption of MSG for those that are already (genetically) affected by them.

If in doubt, ask the king of MSG - Uncle Roger 😂😂😂

MSG is carcinogenic

can food , potatoes chip all full of MSG even fast food

😅 the methods of research of msg to the mice where actually faulty 😅 why would you inject it directly to the blood stream? 😅😅😅 imaging being injected with salt and letting salt pass through your blood stream 😅😅😅

MSG is vegan too... and now that they don't want to use it, they use disodium ribonucleotides in my instant noodles instead... which aren't vegan... This is the worst blight racism has yet wrought upon our wretched souls...

MSG has less sodium than salt, I use it all the time.

Tbh it was probably the prawn that wasn't deveined ,that will make you ill ,prawn poo

I've had my limbs become paralyzed after eating thai food with msg. It was terrifying. I couldn't move for 30 minutes. Once I could grab my phone i called my dad who was a medic. He said he also gets that with msg specifically. It's a reaction apparently a lot of people have. I had Chinese food a year later at a new restaurant and was paralyzed again.
Recently, i had takis. It was too spicy so i only had a few. I lost feeling in my arms and asked if there was msg in it. There is.

There are people who have reactions to this stuff. I don't demonize it, but it should be listed as an ingredient in restaurants for those of us with this allergy or reaction.

Sorry but Asian food are better than in US and UK

uncle roger should do a ted-talk about this subject

"Haiyaa Weak people"

Blessings from Taiwan 🇹🇼 😇 🥰

Thank you for this information 🤓

But I rather use the natural way to get the flavors 💪

Jesus loves everyone 😇 💖

Waging war on uncle roger is a dangerous thing my friend - savimbi

American don't want to use msg because its dangerous but they like use a lot of sugar 😂

I just keep my mouth shut

Fun fact: Even water is bad for you if you drink too much of it 😉

I have tasted MSG and im still fine, im so dissapointed that people will think the MSG is bad for you, its bad if you take to much but isnt shoving a bigmac to your mouth is unhealthy?

Ah, so monosodium glutemate has comparable flavor impact, health impact, and natural occurrence, of salt.

I don't like MSG in my food because it makes all my restaurant chinese food all taste about the same... i have never bought MSG in my home. The problem i think, is that chinese restaurants like to use MSG but not in moderate form, but in great amounts trying to stay competitive with the restaurant next door...

Uncle Roger approves this video

wow! are these sponsored claims? really persuasive in selling products huh?

How weird….Asian food, Mexican and German food have used MSG but Americans said it dangerous. All I see Americans have more disease than a lot more than countries about have used MSG.

It's false reporting and brainwashing new

Hair loss

My grandma dies 96 years old. She always use MSG for cooking.

Msg vs Aromat!

Americans, eating deep fried butter , concerned if Asian cousine is unhealthy (the same population who lives up to 90/100+ years old)

I should point out that the doctor publishing that letter is the same as some guy saying that now on Twitter or reddit.

No proof or basis what so ever. Just ones biased view.

Excessive sodium intake on the other hand without enough water to go with it on the other hand is a much bigger problem

Back in the philippines they killed stray ferral dogs by feeding them food laced with MSG.try it and see what happen😏

Americans protesting about unhealthy MSG whilst still eating big macs is an epic joke

HAIIYYAAAA!

I eat msg and heart goes crazy ' racing anx missing beats . Hmm is that bad ?

The video didnt answer its own question.

people who are afraid of MSG but happily smoking and drinking alcohol are complete idiots!

Msg and aspartame are both terrible!!!

Natural MSG is contained in pizza sauce, cheese, sausage, pepperoni on top of a pizza that Americans love. Even the pizza crust contains natural MSG. It's really nonsense to claim it's a toxic chemical.
I remember my father was adding a slight MSG, Ajinomoto to spinach every time he eats. Spinach or other green vegetables don't contain much protein so just to make it tasty and easy to eat. MSG is that kind of additive only to give some flavor, yet Chinese restaurants use it excessively, that's the issue. Somebody needs to teach the Chinese how to use MSG, they don't add it excessively just like they don't add salt excessively.
Usually, the Japanese use MSG only for boiled vegetables, and potatoes that contain less protein. For soup broth, stock, and others, they extract natural MSG from bonito flakes and kelp unless she is a busy working mother with no time. Japanese restaurants only use natural MSG for vegetables and potatoes unless it's a cheap eatery. They don't use artificially made MSG excessively like the Chinese do.

Protein is an indispensable nutrient for cats. If you want to tame your pet lion or tiger, give him MSG.

Salt tastes good because the human body needs salt. When you detect sodium on your tang, your brain is programmed to feel good. So is sugar since sugar or glucose is the energy that humans need, and that's why you love sweets. Your brain is programmed so. The taste of MSG is a signal to your brain you're taking protein that humans need, that's why it tastes good. Excess dose of salt, and sugar causes health problems too, and you can detect an excess amount of salt or sugar. However, you cannot detect an overdose of MSG, it tastes the same over a certain amount of MSG and that's the problem. Chinese restaurants don't know it, they use extremely huge amounts of MSG, which is why it causes headaches. Your brain is receiving too many signals that you took protein and your brain can not process it. If you take the right amount of MSG, as you take the right amount of salt and sugar it won't cause any problem since it's just an amino acid, protein. Italians, and Europeans hate Asian foods because of this food additive, yet ironically a bunch of natural MSG is contained in Tomato sauce, Parmesan cheese, etc. that Italians love. Europeans are just crude racists. Granular salt or sugar are also artificially made ones so it really doesn’t make any sense to only call those artificially made MSG as toxic.

Fake news sells, the truth is boring. Referring to those journalists back in the day

There is nothing out there that is good for you

I've eaten at chineese buffets all the time since i was child never got sick.

FUIYOH

Here's my 2 cents....when were young, it's ok to consume most of these substances but when were older any and every substance is trying to kill us.😂

When you saw the same thing with COVID. People thinking they could get COVID from Chinese food…..
