It makes food taste good without bringing the feeling of satiety. People can eat a whole bag of Doritos without feeling full, despite consuming a full day’s worth of calories.
The taste vs satiety hacking of modern fast food is a reasonable hypothesis on the cause of the obesity crisis.
It’s not just MSG though. It’s also disodium inosinate and disodium guanylate which work together with MSG to produce the most profound umami response.
It’s harmful because it makes food taste good? Lol

Or is it because you ate something that’s low on protein so your body needs a key macronutrient?
Would you feel more satiated if Doritos had no MSG in it? I doubt it
It’s harmful because it lies to your brain.
Your body literally starves of protein while you think you are eating it, that is a medical system.
