MSG in Chinese food isn't unhealthy — you're just racist, activists say
活动人士表示：中餐里的味精并非不健康——是你带着种族偏见
For years, monosodium glutamate, a food additive known as MSG, has been branded as an unhealthy processed ingredient mainly found in Chinese food, despite a lack of supporting scientific evidence.
多年来，尽管缺乏科学依据，谷氨酸钠这种食品添加剂——也就是我们熟知的味精，一直都被谴责是一种不健康的、经过加工的调味品，且多见于中餐。
People have consumed MSG throughout history, according to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) — but the debate over its health effects began in 1968, when a man wrote a letter to the New England Journal of Medicine, complaining of numbness after eating at Chinese restaurants. A 1969 scientific paper identified MSG as "the cause of the Chinese restaurant syndrome," and warned that it caused "burning sensations, facial pressure, and chest pain."
美国食品药品监督管理局表示，人们自古以来都食用味精。但是自 1968 年起，关于味精对健康的影响开始引发争议。当时，一名男子写信给《新英格兰医学期刊》，投诉他在中餐厅就餐后出现了身体麻木的症状。一篇 1969 年的科学论文确认味精是“中国餐馆综合征的病因”，并且警告称其引发了“灼热感、面部压力和胸痛”。
That's not to say it was scientifically proven. The FDA set up an independent inquiry into MSG in the 1990s — which ultimately concluded that MSG is safe.
不过这并不说明味精的副作用已经被科学证明了。美国食品药品监督管理局在 20 世纪 90 年代对味精进行了独立调查，并最终判定味精是安全的。
