Bitter taste perception
Detects PTC/PROP bitter compounds
| Genotype | Impact | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| GG (Normal) | Normal | Non-taster - you don't perceive PROP/PTC bitterness, so you may readily enjoy bitter vegetables (kale, broccoli, rocket). Great for a veg-rich diet. |
| GC (Carrier) | Low impact | Medium taster - moderate sensitivity to bitter compounds. Some brassicas may taste sharp; light roasting and pairing with olive oil and lemon makes them more enjoyable. |
| CC (Variant) | Moderate | Super-taster - very sensitive to bitterness, so you may avoid healthy bitter vegetables. Roast or lightly sweeten brassicas, add olive oil/lemon, and explore milder greens to keep variety. |
