[quote=Anonymous]I have worried about that dementia/smell link! I do eat lots of blueberries - maybe that is helping. I do think there are lots of causes of diminished smell - some are more peripheral and would not be associated with brain level cognitive decline. The only different thing I have been doing is using a combination of lavender oil, orange oil and eucalyptus oil to lull myself to sleep. It works great (and I buy it from a natural foods coop, not a MLM marketer!). Anyway, is it possible that smelling those strong odors before sleep somehow awakened my general sense of smell? FYI, my mom also has finished smell and is still cognitively going strong at 91.[/quote]
