AbstractWe investigated how swallowing behaviors are affected by the temperature and carbonation of water in healthy humans. Twenty-nine healthy volunteers were instructed to drink as much natural water, carbonated water, or cider as they wanted, and we recorded the volume of solution swallowed and electromyographic (EMG) activity of the masseter and suprahyoid muscles. Sensory tests regarding the ease of holding the solution in the mouth and ease of swallowing were also performed. The volume of carbonated water swallowed was significantly lower than that of natural water and cider. The ease of holding and swallowing the solution significantly differed between solution types such that natural water was the easiest solution to hold and swallow, followed by cider and then carbonated water in...
