Could MSG in your food make you eat more or less?

NCT ID NCT06725615

Summary

This study aimed to understand how long-term exposure to umami taste, from the flavor enhancer MSG, affects feelings of fullness and food intake. Researchers planned to have 75 healthy adults follow strictly controlled diets with low, regular, or high amounts of MSG for two weeks. The main goal was to measure if these different diets changed how much people ate during a test meal.
