To solve the problem, let us note that the calcium percentage no longer considers the moisture content of the canned dog food. Taking the 75% of the sample 681 grams results in a moisture content of 510.75. This is "removed" from consideration and we're left with 170.25 grams which we multiply with the given (dry basis) percentage of calcium to get 2.043 grams of Calcium.

Some people must avoid foods high in msg, as oversupply of the neurotransmitter _____ can over stimulate the brain, inducing sei
choli [55]

The right answer is glutamate

Glutamate is a major excitatory neurotransmitter associated with learning and memory.

It is also associated with Alzheimer's disease whose first symptoms are felt in memory.

Most people unknowingly consume monosodium glutamate (MSG), a commonly used food additive.

An experiment was done on healthy patients, giving them 12 grams of glutamate. It was found that the experience led to headaches, nausea or jaw pain in 50-60% of cases.

It was also measured the level of glutamate contained in the muscles of patients with jaw problems. The tests concluded that the most painful muscles were those containing the highest levels of glutamate.

According to him, one of the keys to chronic pain could lie in the development of drugs that reduce the rate of glutamate.
