Short-term vegetable intake by young children classified by 6-n-propylthoiuracil bitter-taste phenotype.

The American journal of clinical nutrition - 1 Jul 2006

Bell Kendra I, Tepper Beverly J

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Genetic variation in sensitivity to the bitterness of 6-n-propylthiouracil (PROP) is thought to play a role in the acceptance and rejection of bitter-tasting vegetables by young children. OBJECTIVES: We investigated the relation between the PROP bitter-taste phenotype and acceptance and consumption of vegetables by young children. We hypothesized that nontasters of PROP would give higher hedonic...
