Does beer and monosodium glutamate really have an aphrodisiac effect? According to the doctor of Nanjing First Hospital, this is a misinformation. Amino acids in monosodium glutamate combine with alcohol. The nature of beer has changed, which makes people thirsty. However, people are still awake and there are no other abnormal changes in their bodies. Therefore, it is no problem to drink a small amount of beer and monosodium glutamate. However, there is no need to drink too much beer with monosodium glutamate, because beer will get drunk. It's just that the amount of alcohol varies from person to person
