Glutamate dehydrogenase is only synthesized in the liver because it would be toxic elsewhere in the body.

Is monosodium glutamate bad for hyperactive children?

Food that contains MSG will make a child turning and running around, In fresh0fish the security prosecutes the hyperactive child and give him GABA, but GABA can cause turning and running around everywhere. Actually, the above answer is incoherent and completely wrong! There is absolutely NO connection between the consumption of MSG and hyperactivity in children! Did you know that 97% of all of the glutamate (both free and bound) that is consumed is utilized by the intestines as an energy source?? Only 3% can make it through into the bloodstream - which is insignificant compared to the amount naturally circulating in the bloodstream that is made by the body itself. The liver is also instrumental in providing a tight control of blood glutamate levels - so there are no to very minor fluctuations after the consumption of food containing glutamate (which is, by the way, the most common amino acid!) The only time you might have problems with glutamate is if you consume it by spoonfulls on an empty stomach, or if it is applied to the body in an unnatural way, such as through intravenous or direct injection. These myths about the evils of MSG are truly frustrating to anyone knowledgeable to nutrition and real (instead of hyped) science!
