Loss of Taste and Smell
Many people who visit a healthcare provider due to a loss of taste end up finding out problems with their sense of smell. The technical term for the loss of smell is anosmia. Many conditions would cause this problem, such as Parkinson’s disease or Alzheimer’s disease. Some individuals are also born with a heightened or diminished ability to smell in comparison with others. The aging process would affect our sense of taste and smell over time. [3]
