Nutrition and Sensation, 2nd Edition, is a book that examines how sensory experiences control appetite, nutritional desires, and food consumption. Edited by Alan R. Hirsch and published by CRC Press in 2022, the volume also addresses using the sensory system to treat nutritional disorders.
The text examines the impact of multiple sensory modalities, including olfaction, gustation, vision, hearing, and tactile factors. It details how cues such as the aroma of chocolate fuel consumption and considers how smell and taste mechanisms affect satiety and weight in conditions such as obesity.
Providing cross-disciplinary discussion for scholars and practitioners across multiple fields, the 2022 edition added coverage of chemosensory dysfunction in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic.
