What Could Alters Our Sense Of Taste

Dear Reader,

Science is learning more about obesity every day. New research in mice finds that being obese may bring fundamental changes in perceptions of sweet taste by changing the number of cells that react to sweet stimuli. Other research has found that obesity can lead to changes in the brain, and the nerves that are in control of the peripheral taste system. No one, until now, has looked at the cells on the tongue, the ones that actually make the first contract with food.

Too many of us, experts say, have become accustomed to a diet that's rich in taste (sugar and fats) but not in valuable nutrients. And taste is a highly subjective sense; something that tastes barely sweet enough to you might be overpoweringly so to another person. Our tongue and taste buds are our own and have given rise to the question of if taste perceptions and preferences influence weight. Since obesity is a preventable, for the most part, health condition, it's important to look at how we understand taste.

Interesting that fat is not one of the five tastes recognized - these are sweet, sour, salty, umami and bitter. The tongue naturally has taste receptors for two key macronutrients; sweet for carbs, umami for protein.

The latest research on taste differences examined 25 normal mice along with 25 of their littermates who were fed a high fat diet and became obese. To assess the response to different tastes, measures of calcium signaling pathways in the mice were taken. When cells recognize a taste, there are small changes in calcium, and this is what was measured. Obese mice responded more weakly to sweetness and bitterness. Severely overweight mice are unable to respond to sweet tastes because of a lower number of cells that are able to detect sweetness.

When compared to slimmer mice, the obese mice in the study had fewer taste cells for sweetness. The sweet taste receptors they had reacted weakly to sweet stimulation.

What Could Alters Our Sense Of Taste Continued...

The research team, lead by Kathryn Medler of the University of Buffalo believes their findings present the idea that obesity can bring fundamental changes in how the taste cells on the tongue work. This may play a part in both appetite and control of hunger and may be a key piece involved with diet induced obesity. What she and the team saw was that even at the first contact in the taste pathway, the taste receptor cells are impacted by obesity.

It remains unclear how these changes might be tied into obesity. Maybe not being able to sense sweetness as well causes obese people to eat more of it in order to feel satisfied. Earlier work has found that overweight subjects have stronger desires for sweet and savory foods, but might not taste them as well as those who are thinner.

There is still much to learn about the link between taste, appetite and obesity. In future such work could lead to new ways to encourage healthy eating, perhaps new treatments to help get these cells on your tongue back on track, and certainly build an awareness of the link between our bodies an the food we consume.

To your good health,
