Not much. Two and half years on from Delta and most of my atmospheric smell is still weak/absent. Plus, I live in Canada. What Spring? 😂
Greetings from Philadelphia, Chewie! Sorry to hear about your smell loss. Here's a pdf with some general information about smell and taste loss: monell.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Clinical-Questions-Handout.pdf Hopefully it provides some information you can use.
I 'm a congent anosmic and no body talks about it in my country
How did i do whe i feel taste bitter in my mouth
It's been years that i lost my sense of smell. I can't afford the treatment as I am asked by an EENT that i have to have MRI before I will be treated. Is there any other treatment that i can do without spending much.
I lost sense of smell its been 1 year i had head injury frontal lobe!! Is there any medicine to regain sense of smell
The test buds have lost after losing the innovation any way we will figure out
I'm South East Asian and I have dry ear wax and no body odor no matter how I sweat 😊
The day will come when millions of viewers will be clamoring to listen to this lecture. 🙏
I have congenital anosmia.
RUBBISH!!.. . WFPB-Vegan diet is the way to go. So, Dr. Giles - show us the science and the facts, show us medical findings / autopsy, comparative reports and statistical data on cardio-vascular and cancer deaths. Without these, what you're saying is just an opinion. So deceitful, misleading and immoral.
Fabulous talk loved it thank you
I suffer from anosmia and wonder if there’s a correlation with temperature and smell as well 🤔
Hey guys… Can’t wait to hear what you all have prepared.
Volume was a always bad
Hi ! What about a loss of smell due to inhaling a chemical that burned the olfactory epithelium Is there a way to recover from this type of damage? Thank you for your help

the first 2 min is just reading off his resume. Yeo is probably one of the easiest ppl to understand explaining links between obesity and diseases.
It's been seven years since this presentation. I would like to know if they have already managed to do any tests in humans. The truth is that the situation is desperate.
I saw a 1.5 hour video on fifth sense about stem cell therapy and gene therapy. It hasn’t reached human clinical trials but has been tested on mice showing what seems to be pretty good results.
I lost my sense of smell/taste in 2015 after a virus and it took me 2 years to recover my tastebuds. Now, I lost it again from Covid. This is day 6 with no smell/taste. My coffee takes like bitter water and my toothpaste tastes like chalk! Well, I'll wait another 2 years again for it to come back. 🥴☹
why i have bitter taste in my mouth?
Maybe Monell can do an update in early 2022 with any new information/studies. Stay well!
Brilliant presentation Federica! Thank you
Hello, and about Sensorimotor Transformation in the Olfactory System video?
I've had anosmia for over 10 years. No taste or smell 0%. I just discovered that 5mg of prednisone per day restores my taste and smell 100%. My Doctor says no because of side effects. It's my understanding 5mg is a very low dose and not that dangerous compared to not smelling smoke or a gas leak. I'd like to know how much research has been done using low dose prednisone as a treatment. It works perfect for me but my Primary care Dr says no way. What's the consensus?
Did you have nasal discharge before you took the steroids? Or have free air flow with extremely dry nasal passageway?
PREDNISONE. PLEASE GET PREDNISONE.
May God Blessed you the knowledge to create a treatment of this Sir and Ma'am , you can contribute a good hope for the world🙏❤️
I can't wait to have my smell and taste return. And the only way it would happen is through you guys! I hope you find a cure! I'll be donating to you once I have a Job, every payday.
I have congenital anosmia due to congenital rubella syndrome (during 1st month of pregnancy). It's nice to finally research being done.
Since I was young I don't have sense of smell, I Don't know what is the reason
I can't stand bitter taste...yuk
And Corona had it common these days
I have congenital anosmia and I am SO GRATEFUL for the Monell Center. They were one of the first organizations I came across online when I was learning about my condition. I have been donating to their cause and also advocating for the recognition of anosmia, because when I grew up...I had no one to turn to. I used to feel so alone...not many people could understand my experience. It affected me in many ways. I couldn't tell others because I learned that a barrage of questions such as "but can you taste?" or "Are you sure?" would ensue. My wish is that no one else with anosmia feels they are alone. Glad there are more videos and help. Thank you Monell!
I’ve had anosmia for as long as I can remember but for some reason I can still taste food
After 6 years, do they have succeeded in finding a cure?
I... suffered anosmia.... for so long but thank God I found....Dr iyhere on youtube who cured me with his herbal
I am nearly 70 and when I lost my sense of smell sometime in 2020 + I think my sense of taste but I am not too sure of that as it took a long time to realise it was gone and was not an overnight event -- I am 100% sure I haven’t had Covid-19 as my city of Newcastle Australia has had almost no Covid
I’ve never been able to smell.
Anosmia has ruined my life.
Me too
I... suffered anosmia.... for so long but thank God I found....Dr iyhere on youtube who cured me with his herbal
I was born with no sense of smell
very informative, thanks
So what’s the treatment if olfactory is attacked by virus or infection???
Search for Dr iyhere on youtube, he has the cure
Lost smell within 17 days after TBI. How do I cure the virus or infection that occurred? No doctor in Sweden have helped me. Michael Zazzio was the first one that explained to what happened.
I am 29 and lost my sense of taste and smell both.
im white but have completely dry ear wax almost like flakes
I'm south east asian and have wet ear wax😂
I'm loss smell and taste 10 month.. i hope my smell and taste comeback again... 🙏
The main problem of the Vagus Nerve is located in the middle of the outside of peoples neck. The nerve there is mostly blocked by trigger points. Unblocking these trigger points and the Vagus Nerve will become in a relaxed state. This is the most important thing to treat the Vagus Nerve. Once you have done that, than you are going to feel that both on a physically and mentally way. You will feel as if you are reborned. It will change your life forever.
Hey! I really appreciate you all covering anosmia. I was born with congenital anosmia and it’s disheartening how little the topic is covered. Thank y’all for bringing awareness to this
I lost my sense of smell back in the middle of octuber, I don't know for sure if it was because of the corona (probably it was) because I didn't take the test, but anyway, I had the flu, but it was different, I felt less sick but strangely I lost my smell Í couldn't smell almost anything and I have never experienced such thing so I'm pretty sure it has to do with the coronavirus. Lately I barely smell few things only if I keep them super near to my nose but there are a lot of products that smell just the same way, it's an ordor kind of weird, unpleasant, for instance shampoo, creams, perfume, toothpaste, detergent, and even some fruits and food. I'm pretty sure this is not alright, I mean most of the people recover within a couple of weeks or maybe 1 month but in my case it has been almost 5 months and I don't feel as if I'm getting any better. is it recommend to take some medicine or try nasal spry or something like that, or should I wait until I recover it naturally? anyone who's experiencing the same?
Covid sucks. Haven’t smelled or tasted anything since early November. One of my only joys in life; food
How are you now?
I had for probably 1/2 months and it was horrible, every time I woke up in the middle of the night my mouth tasted SO WEIRD that even water couldn't make the taste go away. Yesterday the taste wasn't that bad. Today I don't even feel it.
did you go to the doctor or it just went away on its own?
@@Foodisbae669 it went away on its own
@@mythwartz4698 Man its like a torture even i smell sour now im so fucked up its been a week now idk when will it go away i hope it will go away on its own
@@shoz1392 Did it ever go away? I have been struggling with the same thing. All my tests came back normal when I got my endoscopy done but I taste the same sour taste in my throat and stuff all the time. It’s the worse
@@myeisha5014 luckily, after 2-3 months i was able to smell some things... slowly it just went away probably took 4-5 months..
