Fat Detection Taste, Texture, and Post Ingestive Effects

Taking a multidisciplinary approach, this volume sheds new light on critical concerns regarding dietary fat and its relation to obesity. Going far beyond the well-known concerns, it offers new scientific data on the many aspects of fat, including psychological, behavioral, genetic, and physiological...
