This project investigates how salivary microbiota influences aroma perception and food preferences, particularly in obese individuals. By analyzing the microbiota and its effects on aroma compounds, the research aims to uncover mechanisms that affect eating behavior and food consumption.
During eating, aroma compounds and its precursors are released from the food and dissolved in saliva where they are susceptible to be metabolised by salivary microbiota.
This will affect the type and rate of aroma compounds reaching the olfactory receptors (retronasal aroma), thus aroma perception and food liking.
Scientific evidences suggest that obesity provokes an alteration in salivary microbiota, which could provoke an unbalanced aroma perception altering food preferences and compromising f…
