Ageing: Retaining Your Sense Of Smell

As we grow older our bodies cannot digest food as efficiently, which can result in the absorbtion of fewer nutrients.

Deficiency in zinc may be the cause of a declining sense of smell, one of the most important (and enjoyable) senses.

Try 15mg of zinc a day for women (men should take 20-30mg.) and continue to enjoy the perfume of spring flowers, newly mown grass and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee, amongst a myriad of other favourites!
