"We found that prevalence of overweight was significantly higher in MSG users than in non-users. We saw this risk even when we controlled for physical activity, total calorie intake and other possible explanations for the difference in body mass. The positive associations between MSG intake and overweight were consistent with data from animal studies," he said.

The study is published in the journal Obesity.
