Al-Marsad Journal: A clinical nutritional consultant Dr. Abdulaziz Al-Othman revealed the effect of “flavored salt or flavor enhancer” on growth hormone, short stature or autism.
Al-Othman said in his talk on Gulf Rotana’s “Ya Hala” program that short stature occurs due to various effects, including staying up late, because growth hormone is secreted between 10:00 and 4:00.
He added: “This substance contains two parts, salt and glutamate, which is a naturally occurring amino acid, but its excess has been shown to affect the thyroid glands, growth hormone, hyperactivity and autism.”
He concluded: “Increasing this substance may not lead to autism, but it does increase the symptoms, because autism is a neurological message.”
