Dr. Robin Dando was recently invited to discuss his work on sweet perception on the BFM Malaysia’s Health News Digest. He answered the following questions…
- How does Gymnema Sylvestre reduce sweet perception?
- What did you find when you let participants with diminished sweet perception mix their preferred sucrose solution?
- Naturally, when would we experience a drop in sweet perception? Does it happen more in obese people?
- How can your study help us fight obesity?
- How does one’s sense of smell affect how much one eats? If I can’t smell as well, would I eat less or more?
