The researchers add that stress is also known to increase intake of salty foods. But in this study, the team did not find any GC receptors in taste buds associated with salty and sour tastes. Parker says this may be because stress could have an influence on salt taste processing in the brain. Taste buds are not only found on the tongue; they are also present in the gut and pancreas.
Taste sensation work with smell sensation or they enhance each other. The receptors for taste are located in specialized organs called taste buds which are numerous on the surface of the epithelium covering the tongue in humans and mamals. The taste buds are also located on the papillae on the upper surface of the tongue and also on the roof of the oral cavity, the pharynx and larynx.
