Nose Health Issues: Nose is a very important part of our body, which helps us in breathing, smelling and speaking. But do you know that the nose also gives many types of information regarding health. A new study suggests that your loss of smell may be a sign of at least 139 or more serious medical conditions.
Actually, this has been revealed in a study published in Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience. These diseases include Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, heart disease, COVID-19 and others.
Nose tells about health condition
According to the study, if we are losing the aroma or smell of something then it can be a symptom of many diseases. For example, in people who have Parkinson’s disease, their ability to smell decreases. At the same time, in case of Alzheimer’s, there may be problem in focusing, in which the nose can also be affected.
What does the study say?
Another research has found a connection between odor and inflammation. According to the study, when researchers looked at all 139 medical conditions associated with loss of smell, all of them included some form of inflammation. Michael Lyon, author and professor emeritus at the Charlie Dunlap School of Biological Sciences at the University of California, Irvine, said that enhancing the ability to smell can improve the memory of adults by 226 percent.
