Resumo: | ObjectiveThis study aimed to investigate the associations between taste sensitivity, preference for sweet and salty flavours, and nutritional status of adolescents in public schools. MethodsWe used a cross-sectional study involving 1,036 adolescents of both sexes, aged 10-19 years. Preference for sweet or salty flavours and preference for foods high in sugar or sodium were evaluated. Measurements of body mass index and taste flavour intensity recognition were conducted. ResultsMost participants were unable to identify the flavours and/or intensities, and only 18.0% of participants were able to correctly identify both the flavour and intensity of the samples. Most participants (82.1%) preferringsweet foods had low sensitivity to this taste, just as a large proportion of individuals preferring saltiness (82.3%) were less sensitive to salt (p<0.001). Preference for saltiness was associated with pre-obesity. ConclusionWe found an association between a preference for sweet or salty flavours and nutritional status, highlighting the importance of poor food choices in the development of obesity and other chronic diseases. |

ObjetivoEste estudo teve como objetivo investigar a associação entre a sensibilidade gustativa, a preferência pelos sabores doce e salgado e o estado nutricional de adolescentes em escolas públicas. MétodosEstudo de natureza transversal, envolvendo 1 036 adolescentes de ambos os sexos, com idade entre 10 e 19 anos. A preferência pelos sabores doce e salgado e por alimentos ricos em açúcar ou sódio foi avaliada. Medidas do índice de massa corporal e testes de reconhecimento de gosto-intensidade foram conduzidos. ResultadosA maioria dos participantes foi incapaz de identificar os sabores e/ou intensidades e somente 18,0% dos participantes foram capazes de identificar corretamente o sabor e intensidade das amostras. A maioria dos participantes (82,1%) preferiram alimentos doces e tiveram baixa sensibilidade a esse gosto, bem como uma grande proporção de indivíduos que preferem salgado (82,3%) eram menos sensíveis ao sal (p<0,001). A preferência pelo gosto salgado foi associada com excesso de peso. ConclusãoFoi encontrada uma associação entre a preferência pelos sabores doce e salgado e o estado nutricional, destacando a importância de escolhas alimentares pobres no desenvolvimento de obesidade e outras doenças crônicas.Núcleo de Editoração – PUC-Campinas2023-03-16info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/article/view/7867Brazilian Journal of Nutrition; Vol. 30 No. 3 (2017): Revista de NutriçãoRevista de Nutrição; Vol. 30 Núm. 3 (2017): Revista de NutriçãoRevista de Nutrição; v. 30 n. 3 (2017): Revista de Nutrição1678-9865reponame:Revista de Nutriçãoinstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPenghttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/article/view/7867/5393Copyright (c) 2023 Marize Melo dos SANTOS, Camila Santos MARREIROS, Herika Brenda Santana da SILVA, Ana Raquel Soares de OLIVEIRA, Kyria Jayanne Clímaco CRUZhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMelo dos SANTOS, Marize Santos MARREIROS, Camila Santana da SILVA, Herika Brenda Soares de OLIVEIRA, Ana RaquelClímaco CRUZ, Kyria Jayanne 2023-03-16T17:11:56Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/7867Revistahttp://www.scielo.br/rnPRIhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/oai||sbi.submissionrn@puc-campinas.edu.br1678-98651415-5273opendoar:2023-03-16T17:11:56Revista de Nutrição - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false |
