The harm of monosodium glutamate is mostly caused by improper cooking. For example, if monosodium glutamate is put too early, it will be decomposed into sodium pyroglutamate at high temperature, which will not only lose its flavor, but also cause cancer. Cooking with some foods that are too acidic and too alkaline will also make the food unpalatable. Of course, you can't eat too much msg. Excessive intake of monosodium glutamate will increase the content of glutamic acid in human body, affect the absorption of magnesium and calcium, lead to headache, nausea and other symptoms, and even have adverse effects on reproductive system.
MSG is a double-edged sword. Under the premise of not eating too much and cooking properly, eating monosodium glutamate is good for the human body. Be careful when you don't know how to use monosodium glutamate.
Monosodium glutamate is a kind of flavoring agent, which belongs to freshness-enhancing seasoning. Its main components are sodium glutamate, vegetables, soup and seasoning.
Adding monosodium glutamate to the sauce can make the taste more delicious. Monosodium glutamate can change the nutritional status of human cells and treat nerves.
Weak, but improper use will have side effects on human health. The safe use of monosodium glutamate mainly includes the following aspects.
First, grasp the temperature when putting monosodium glutamate to avoid high temperature and low temperature. When the cooking temperature is too high, sodium glutamate will be converted into sodium pyroglutamate, which is harmful to human health and has slight toxicity.
Li. The temperature of the dish is too low, and monosodium glutamate is not easy to dissolve. Between 70 ~ 90℃, monosodium glutamate has the best solubility and flavor, and can be placed properly. If you want to eat cold dishes, you can boil monosodium glutamate with boiling water and pour it on the cold dishes to refresh yourself.
Second, grasp the dosage of monosodium glutamate. Excessive consumption of monosodium glutamate will increase the intake of sodium and may disturb the balance of neurotransmitters in human body. Excessive intake of monosodium glutamate will lead to drowsiness, fatigue, palpitation and anxiety, which will affect the amino acid balance. Children are particularly sensitive and may also cause hyperglycemia. People with hypertension, nephritis and edema should eat carefully. The most delicious concentration of monosodium glutamate is 0.5%, and the consumption of monosodium glutamate should not exceed 0.2 g every day, which will not affect human health. When using, you can use the handle of the spoon to measure monosodium glutamate to avoid excessive consumption.
Third, grasp the collocation of monosodium glutamate, and don't use it in acidic and alkaline foods. Monosodium glutamate is not easy to dissolve in acidic food. The higher the acidity, the more difficult it is to dissolve, and naturally it can't keep fresh. However, when used in alkaline solution, a chemical reaction will occur, resulting in an unpleasant smell of disodium glutamate, which is harmful to human body.
