Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The hTAS2R38 taste receptor genotype is related to bitter taste perception and thus may affect food preferences. The present study aimed to evaluate the relationship between the hTAS2R38 genotype and the food consumption and nutrient intakes of Finnish children aged 2-6 years. METHODS: Dietary intake was assessed with 7-day food records, and DNA samples were collected by cheek swabs for genotyping....
