Just when we thought we knew the names of all the ingredients in which MfG 1<\/sup> could be hidden, a new collection appeared on the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For many years we\u2019ve known that flavor enhancers contain the free glutamate in hydrolysates, autolysates, yeast extracts and enzyme modified ingredients that enhanced taste by triggering glutamate receptors in the mouth and on the tongue. These are ingredients such as soy protein isolate, hydrolyzed pea protein and autolyzed yeast extract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The so-called \u201cplant based,\u201d protein substitutes like \u201cJust Egg,\u201d \u201cImpossible Meats,\u201d \u201cBeyond Beef\u201d and \u201cLightlife plant-based burgers\u201d contain glutamic acid and aspartic acid (both excitotoxic 2<\/sup> \u2013 brain damaging — ingredients) which are part of the amino acid stews used for claiming that the products contain protein.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, with a rush for \u201cclean labels,\u201d 3<\/sup> creative new names are being assigned to old ingredients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Names of ingredients that always contain MfG<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Note: Glutamic acid found in unadulterated protein does not cause adverse reactions. To cause adverse reactions, the glutamic acid must have been processed\/manufactured, released from protein during processing, or come from protein that has been fermented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everyone knows that some people react to the food ingredient monosodium glutamate (MSG). What many don\u2019t know, is that more than 40 different ingredients contain the chemical in monosodium glutamate — Manufactured free Glutamate (MfG) — that causes these reactions. The following list of ingredients that always contain MfG was compiled over the last 30 years from consumer reports and information provided by manufacturers and food technologists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Glutamate (E 620)
Monosodium glutamate (E 621)
Monopotassium glutamate (E 622)

    If you have questions or comments, we\u2019d love to hear from you. If you have hints for others on how to avoid exposure to MfG, send them along, too, and we\u2019ll put them up on\u00a0<\/em>    Facebook<\/em><\/a>.
