I'm on 2 teaspoons a day.
Any studies out there about the negative effects of it?
Is Marmite poisoning a thing?

According to the linked research, for an 80kg person, problematic amount of Marmite from the MSG contents standpoint would firmly sit around 1,4kg daily consumption, in which case you will be also ingesting definitely lethal 140g of salt, and even worse, more than 11 standard size jars of Marmite.
Luckily our bodies know how much salt we need and it tastes bad once you've had enough. Marmite would taste terrible* once you had enough salt
*Terrible as in too salty, as opposed to the regular terrible some people accuse it of being
