Kölner Studie: Geruch macht satt (zumindest Mäuse) ga.de/news/wissen-...
Mäuse schnuppern an Grapefruits und haben dann keinen Hunger mehr: Wie praktisch: Geruch kann satt machen
Kölner Wissenschaftler finden einen überraschenden Auslöser für Sättigungsgefühl – nämlich das Riechen. Ein neuer Weg zum Schlankwerden? Leider funktioniert es bis jetzt nur bei Mäusen.

Grateful to @maxplanck.de for featuring our recent paper in their amazing new video! 🎥🌟 Thank you for the wonderful spotlight on our work! 🙌😄
Yummy, das riecht gut! 🥘 Essensduft aktiviert bestimmte Nervenzellen in #Gehirn, die das Hungergefühl verringern. Deshalb haben wir nach dem Kochen, oft keinen #Appetit mehr. Der erste #Heißhunger ist verflogen: youtu.be/HTPll7fLl3c #Ernährung
Sättigungsgefühl durch Gerüche: Kann man sich satt riechen und Heißhunger einfach wegriechen?

Geruch von Essen kann Sättigung auslösen – neue Erkenntnisse
Essverhalten: Schon der Geruch von Essen kann das Sättigungsgefühl auslösen – zeigen Forschende am Max-Planck-Institut. Bei Übergewicht scheint dieser Mechanismus gestört zu sein.
