Eating with an open mouth activates cells, increases sense of food
A new study hits etiquette with the wall, encouraging disobedience to parents’ teachings from a young age, and eating with an open mouth, for great benefit.
The author of the study from the University of Oxford asserts that eating with an open mouth helps to taste better, contrary to the advice of parents to eat with a closed mouth, within the rules of tact and etiquette, according to the British Daily Mail.
Experimental psychology professor Charles Spence explains that “compounds that give the flavor of our food can better reach the back of the nose while chewing with an open mouth.” “Chewing open mouth may actually help to release more volatile organic compounds, contributing to our sense of smell and general perception.”
Meat, fruits, and vegetables all contain volatile organic compounds, such as esters, ketones, turbines, and aldehydes. These compounds form distinct flavors of food, contribute to their taste, and when they hit the back of the nose, the olfactory sensory neurons, which are directly connected to the brain, are activated.
