Is your tongue sensitive to likes and dislikes? How to check if you own "super taste"

ByDolanh

Many foods that weak people do not like, and when they can not choose what to eat themselves, those who had pain at the time of meals at home or school lunch time, or who ate what they eat outside "too sweet People who are trying to avoid eating out as they feel like "too greasy", "taste too strong", etc. are actually not "selfish", "luxury" or "not disciplined" neither the tongue Even if you eat the same thing because it is sensitive you may feel the taste stronger than others.

Taste bud (MIRAI)The tendency to eat food tends to be intense because the number of taste is stronger than usualSupertaster(Super tister) "is said to exist about 25% of the population, I will introduce a method to check easily whether myself is that one or not.

Details are as below.How to Tell if you are a Supertaster

Propylthiouracil (PROP)In the taste test using the reagent called "Nontaster (non-taste)" where about 25% of the population can not feel the taste of this reagent, the remaining 75% can feel a bitter taste to some extent However, 25% of those who can feel the bitterness are classified as more sensitive "super tasters". The percentage of females who are super tisters is higher than men (female 35%, male 15%), racially speaking that the super taste rate is higher in Asia and Africa than in Europe.

It is estimated that a super taste tastes about three times stronger than the owner of the average taste. For this reason, I do not like green vegetables such as spinach, keel, cabbage, or they tend to dislike grapefruit juice, green tea, coffee, carbonated beverages. Not all super tasters necessarily hate these foods, but when comparing the group of super tasters and the group not so, the tendency to be "hated and inevitable" has been confirmed.

Feel the tasteTaste budThe majority of it is attached to the protrusion called the nipple on the surface of the tongue, but because of the large number of this nipple in the super taste, it is not strict, but you can easily find yourself at home by counting the papilla You can check if it is a super taster. What to prepare is a paper coloring matter for blue food · paper, mirror, magnifying glass with a hole of 7 mm in diameter.

First of all, take a blue food coloring matter on a finger or a cotton swab and dye the tongue blue.


When looking in the mirror, a round small protrusion that remains pink and does not stain blue is a fungiform papilla (Fungiform papilla)is. By counting this fungiform papilla you can judge whether you are a super taste or not.


Specifically, it is said that fungiform papilla is classified as a super taster in the range of 7 mm in diameter, so if you count the paper with a hole with a diameter of 7 mm on the tongue and count with the magnifying glass. Commercially availablepunchThe hole diameter is 6mm - 8mm, so it may be good to use it well. Also, even if you do not do that, you can judge to some extent whether you have more taste buds or fewer taste buds, simply by observing the tongue with a mirror. Roughly, in the range of 7 mm in diameter, we can classify 15 to 35 fungiform papillae as "standard", more than "super taste" as more than it, and "less taste" less than it.

As "tastes" and "non-tiesters" are not diseases, they are just a difference in constitution, as there are tall people and low people, eyes brown and blue people, so the necessity of treatment There is no need to be sick. Super tister seems to be less risk of obesity and cardiovascular disease from a tendency to dislike greasy foods, but because the risk of cancer such as colon cancer is high from the tendency to dislike vegetables, "taste buds are many" People who think that you dislike spinach "," I do not like fatty things ", etc., you might think that trying to take as much green vegetables as possible by devising easy-to-eat cooking methods.
