An important preservative is a salt called Ajinamoto. Chemically it is called Monosodium glutamate or MSG. Research studies have revealed that MSG is an Excitotoxin. These are substances stimulate the cells in the brain called the Neurons. As a result, they get damaged and die. Unfortunately, there is no mechanism in the humans which can separate this toxin substance from the blood and stop it from entering the brain. The region of the brain called Hypothalamus gets affected by the MSG. The damaged caused to this section of the brain leads to abnormalities in the body. One such abnormality is Obesity.
