We have investigated the effects of inhaling odors of preference on physiological responses to physical exercise in college students. Rhythmic handgrip, maintaining a mercurial pressure by repetitive compression, increased blood pressure. In the participants exercised with inhaling odors of their choice, such as rose, jasmine and lavender, the increase in diastolic blood pressure during exercise was reduced by 24%. In contrast, the blood pressure increase during static handgrip, maintaining the power 30-40% of maximum, was not affected by the existence of favorite odors. Since the blood pressure increase during static handgrip is a lower brainstem reflex, the present result shows that the inhalation of favorite odors suppresses the muscle sympathetic vasoconstrictor activity and attenuates the blood pressure increase by affecting the central nervous system higher than the midbrain.
