Summary

There are receptors to free glutamate in the oral cavity and stomach that may mediate effects of this amino acid on gastrointestinal physiology. The investigators hypothesize that a chronic supplementation of monosodium glutamate (MSG) could modulate gastric emptying and the further metabolism of dietary protein in healthy subjects.
