A member asked:
I was wondering does the consumption of products containing monosodium glutamate cause neurological impairment over time?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: There was some question about this in the remote past but has largely been discounted. There are those who may have a sensitivity to this common food additive but it is likely short lived and of minor inconvenience.
