TUNKHANNOCK (Wyoming
Co.) - Your nose will probably
save your life many times - for
instance, when it tells you that
something is burning, that cook
ing gas (which contains an
added noxious chemical) is leak
ing, or that your chicken salad
sandwich has spoiled. The olfac
tory sense also gives great plea
sure, from the aromas of a good
meal to the scent of a lover.
Though it's an intimate and
essential part of our lives, the
sense of smell is the least under
stood of our senses. Here are
some of the facts:
1. Though the human sense
of smell is far less developed
than that of other animals, a

person with a healthy sense ot
smell can detect as many as
10,000 different odors.
2. Much of your sense of
taste depends on your sense of
smell. Thus when you hold your
nose or have a cold, you lose
much of the flavor of foods.
3. Women tend to have a
keener sense of smell than men,
and it's particularly acute at the
time of ovulation.
4. Your sense of smell is
heightened when you're hungry.
5. Smoking seriously impairs
the sense of smell. In fact,
smoking may cause long-term
damage to me olfactory system,
which can take a long time to
recover once you quit smoking.

peak around age 40, though
some studies suggest that it
starts to decline in some people
at age 20.
7. Half of those over age 65
and 76% of those over 80 have a
reduced ability to smell (called
hyposmia). Not only is there a
decline in the ability to detect
odors, but also in the ability to
identify them, though this
decline varies highly from per
son to person. The reasons for
the loss include neurological
changes; certain chronic disor
ders (such as Alzheimer's,
Parkinson's, or hypothyroidism);
use of medication (such as anti
histamines, pain killers, or
steroids); and the cumulative
adverse effects from years of
smoking or drinking.
8. It's estimated that 4 mil
lion Americans have problems
with their sense of smell and/or
taste, not related to aging. Each
year 200,000 of them seek med
ical help for this, most complain
ing about a lack of smell (anos
mia) or odd smells (phantosmia).
9. One out of every 20 people
suffering a head injury experi
ence a loss of smell and/or taste.
10. You have a dominant nos
tril, just as you have a dominant
hand. If you're right-handed,
your right nostril will be more
sensitive, because of greater
nerve sensitivity on that side.
11. Odor prefer
ences vary in different
parts of the world,
depending on cultural
and/or genetic varia
tions.
12. If your are con
stantly or repeatedly
exposed to an odor,
your ability to per
ceive it will usually
decline - this is called
adaptation. This de
crease in sensitivity
can last for up to three
weeks after the odor is
removed, according to
research at the Monell
Chemical Senses Cen
ter in Philadelphia
People are more likely
to adapt to an odor if
they believe it is a nat
ural essence, rather
than a potentially haz
ardous chemical, even
when they are being
exposed to exactly the
same odor.
13 About 85% of
people have childhood
memory linked to a
particular aroma,
according to one sur
vey (most commonly
mentioned was the
fragrance of baked
goods). Memories
triggered by an odor
tend to be more emo
tionally intense and
evocative than those
linked to other senso
ry cues
