Abstract
This crossover human intervention study investigated the impact of individual sweet taste perception on energy intake and blood glucose regulation. Modulating sweetness in isocaloric sucrose solutions did not affect postprandial glucose or hormone levels. However, participants with higher sucrose detection thresholds consumed significantly more energy (402 ± 78.8 kcal, 39 ± 21%) and exhibited a higher glucose/insulin ratio. Higher fat-free mass in the high-threshold group may have influenced these findings.
