Query :
Kindly clarify whether we can use ajinomoto (mono sodium gutamate) regularly. There are reports that it is bad for health.

Answer :
Dear Raghuraman,
Ajinomoto is an additive used to increase the flavor of many a chinese dish and to make them fluffy too. It can cause a sensastion of choking in the chest---mimicking an anginal or heart attack -- causing tremendous anxiety and may put you in ICCU too, shaving all your life's savings before saving your life. This is called "Chinese Restaurant Syndrome".
yours truly,
Dr.Ravindranath
