What
is the difference between natural glutamate and MSG?
It does not matter whether you
select glutamate-rich foods and ingredients like tomatoes,
Parmesan cheese, walnuts, MSG or soy sauce, the glutamate
in each is the same.
Medical specialists have known
for decades that your body does not distinguish between the
glutamate found naturally in foods and that in MSG. In fact,
even todayĚs state-of-the-art technology canĚt separate them.
For example, if you analyzed a plate of spaghetti, you could
find out the total amount of glutamate in the dish. However,
since glutamate is glutamate, there is no way to determine
whether the glutamate came from tomatoes, Parmesan cheese
or MSG.
