Why Does Umami Taste So Good?

from The Curious Clinicians Hosted by The Curious Clinicians

Today, we are rebooting an absolute classic from way back in our catalog - episode 9. Avi teaches us about the biology behind the taste of umami and why we might have evolved to find it so delicious. Show notes for the episode are a very long scroll down our website, or you can find them here: https://curiousclinicians.com/2020/09/16/episode-9-why-is-umami-so-delicious/ We'll be back in 2 weeks in discussion with doctor and illustrator Grace Ferris!
