Monosodium glutamate (MSG) contains Sodium (a part of regular salt for cooking) and glutamic acid. MSG has not been found to adversely affect human health in normal amounts, or even in large amounts. Anecdotes of MSG causing illness -such as Chinese restaurant syndrome and Migraines - have been around, at least, since the late 60's, however no reliable proof of the matter has been presented. Glutamic acid is found in many types of food (eg. seaweed and meats), and MSG is often added to enhance flavour when cooking. Excessive use of sodium might however lead to a high blood pressure, which is why some doctors recommend not using too much salt.
