[HTML][HTML] Obesity interferes with the orosensory detection of long-chain fatty acids in humans

Background: The association between the orosensory detection of lipids, preference for fatty
foods, and body mass index (BMI; in kg/m 2) is controversial in humans. Objective: We
explored the oral lipid-sensing system and the orosensory-induced autonomic reflex system
in lean and obese subjects. Design: Lean (BMI: 19 to< 25; n= 30) and obese (BMI> 30; n=
29) age-matched men were enrolled. Their oral threshold sensitivity to linoleic acid (LA) was
determined by using a 3-alternative forced-choice ascending procedure, and their eating …
