Stomach-shrinking bariatric surgery may also foster changes in a persons
taste buds, which could help them lose weight and keep it off, according
to a new study that was set in motion after researchers noticed many
patients had reported increased sensitivity to tastes and new aversions to
foods after surgery.
.
Researchers at Stanford University School of Medicine in California found
that patients who reported a decrease in taste intensity after bariatric
surgery had lost more of their excess weight after three months than those
whose sense of taste became more intense.
.
The results were reported Nov. 4 during Obesity Week 2014, hosted in
Boston by the American Society for Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery and the
Obesity Society.

Even before surgery, the tests showed the obese patients were uniformly
less taste sensitive than normal-weight patients, said Dr. John M. Morton,
chief of bariatric and minimally invasive surgery at Stanford, who worked
on the study.
.
Obese patients may seek to derive satisfaction through volume rather than
taste appreciation.
.
The majority (87 per cent) of patients reported a change in taste
perception after bariatric surgery, with 42 per cent saying they ate less
because food didnt taste as good.
.
After surgery, patients did note less preference for salty foods, Morton
said.

One could speculate that a doctor with the name of Morton should know a
great deal about salt.
