Loss of Smell and Taste Information, Treatment and Relief

We often take for granted the ability to smell and taste and only realize this once these vital senses are lost. Our ability to smell and taste allows us to enjoy delicious foods and savor their rich aromas. This ability also plays an important role in warning us against fires, poisonous substances or even certain gasses which may be harmful or even life threatening.

Generally when you cannot smell, you cannot taste.

The two senses work in harmony to make you aware of your surroundings and to enjoy life’s pleasures. If one gets interrupted, the other suffers as well.

A person's ability to taste and smell may be explained in a simple equation:

The ability to taste = (and is influenced by) one's ability to smell an aroma.

Try holding your nose and eating something you enjoy most. The result would be that your favorite food doesn't taste as good anymore and has lost its beloved flavor! This example corresponds to when one has a cold with blocked nasal passages; food becomes tasteless and dull, as you are unable to smell the foods delicious aromas.
