    Decription: Title Mechanisms and Functions of Fat Taste in Humans Presented by Dr. Richard D. Mattes Distinguished Professor of Nutrition Science Department of Nutrition Science Purdue University It is widely accepted that the fat content of foods influences their overall sensory properties, palatabilty, and consumption. Less well understood is the role of oral fat exposure on lipid metabolism. The prevailing view is that dietary fats are detected by their contribution to a food's texture, appearance, and possibly odor. Dr. Mattes has demonstrated that humans can detect free fatty acids by taste cures and that these cues specifically alter postprandial lipid consumption. He is currently studying the mechanism of this effect and its nutritional implications for people consuming products that mimic the sensory properties of fats, but with reduced levels of micronutrients. For further information, or to arrange to meet with Dr. Mattes, please contact the Center for Smell and Taste at 294-5360.
