    Obesity is indeed related to eating too much MSG. Zhai Fengying, deputy director of the Institute of Nutrition and Food Safety of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said that in their investigation, they found that the consumption of MSG by adult Chinese residents has a certain relationship with being overweight. The proportion of people with an average daily consumption of monosodium glutamate over 1 gram was 37% and the ratio was less than 1 gram for 28% The cumulative daily intake of MSG exceeds 2.2 grams, and the risk of overweight increases significantly.
