Outside the USA?What is the MSG free diet?
An MSG-free diet excludes foods containing monosodium glutamate (MSG), a flavor enhancer commonly added to processed foods, snacks, seasonings, and restaurant dishes. Some individuals may choose to avoid MSG due to sensitivity or perceived adverse reactions, such as headaches or flushing, although scientific evidence on widespread MSG sensitivity remains inconclusive. Adhering to this diet involves avoiding processed and fast foods known to contain MSG and being vigilant about reading labels on packaged foods. The Fig app is an excellent resource for building an MSG-free shopping list, ensuring that all food choices align with this dietary restriction. As always, consulting with a healthcare professional or dietitian is recommended to navigate dietary changes safely.
