As much as we know about our nature today, far more than what we’ve learned so far, it still remains a mystery. For example, the most fundamental point in the development of our senses of smell and taste is still unknown. Scientists in the UK have come to a great conclusion on this matter today.

The team led by Beyza Üstün of the University of Durham began to examine the baby in the wombs of 100 pregnant women with a 4-dimensional ultrasound image. Target, baby, how the mother reacts to the taste and smell of the food she is given could be seen. The results showed that we respond to smell and taste even when we are still a fetus in the womb.

Babies laughed when they tasted carrots and grumbled at kale:

• 4-dimensional ultrasound of babies in the womb.

As part of the study, scientists divided 70 mothers into two groups and fed these groups carrots or kale in capsules. 30 mothers were considered the control group without consuming any special foods. Babies in their mothers’ wombs a more ‘happy’ facial expression when digesting a carrot While this is seen to be the case, it is seen in babies when the kale is digested. more tearful facial expression seen.

Babies’ response to the taste of the foods their mothers ate also showed that babies’ sense of smell also developed in the womb. Because people define the taste of a food not only from the taste, but also from the taste. with the combination of the taste and smell of this food feels.

Beyza Üstün made a statement about her studies, sharing that other studies have shown that babies can taste and smell in the womb. However, the difference between their study and these studies is “Our study is the first to see these reactions before birth.He explained. Üstün explained that the results could help determine postnatal feeding preferences in infants.
