Detecting lying through the stomach

The stomach may reveal more truth than standard physical heart measurement, according to scientists at the University of Texas (USA). Measuring the physical heart detects changes in heart rate and the rate at which you sweat.

However, the stomach and intestines are much more sensitive to mental stress than the heart. Although you are the best and most seasoned liar in the world, your stomach still denounces your intentions more than your heart.

Sixteen healthy volunteers participating in the study had to do three things: 1 / Do nothing. 2 / Tell the truth. 3 / Lying. They were measured at the same time the changes in the stomach and heart rate. The researchers found that the method of detecting a lie through the gastrointestinal tract was more accurate.
