Sweet food is at a premium in the wild because the sugars it contains provide valuable calories. But even with sugar there can be too much of a good thing, so it would be no surprise if the body were able to regulate the perception of sweetness as its nutritional needs vary. According to two studies presented to the International Symposium on Olfaction and Taste, held in San Fransisco this week, that is exactly what happens. The studies, one on mice and one on people, have identified two hormones that seem to fine-tune the perception of sweetness, and thus regulate the intake of sugar independently of the previously known mechanism of satiation that is located in the brain.
