Covid survivors - how long before you got your sense of smell/taste back? | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 79744298 United States 02/02/2021 08:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Loss of smell, taste is nothing new. That happens even with the common cold but they’ve made it into something big and scary and many have forgotten how miserable the sniffles are due to the Covid fear mongering. And, it’s directly tied to a zinc deficiency. Get yourself some vitamin code raw zinc or liquid zinc assay. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79860431 Food tastes of nothing, drink tastes of nothing. No appetite. It’s a dismal way to live. also thats what you get for picking your nose and eating it and going back in to pick some more. if you wanted to keep your sense of smell, you should have never picked your nose and only breathed though your mouth. thats the only way to avoid loss of smell |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 79986034 United Kingdom 02/02/2021 08:55 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | about 3 weeks for me for my wife maybe 1.5 months. sweet tea with honey helped instead of water to hydrate as it tastes bad... otherwise i found enjoyment in textured food like al dente pasta twirls with butter and salt/tomato concentrate (paste)....as everything else tastes like cardboard, and the twirls just make it interesting on the tongue so umami, salt, sweet, sour mix rather than delicate flavours |

Apparently, covid hides out in the brain, heart, and digestive system long after it's out of the rest of our system. Which is why loss of taste and smell, heart issues, and stomach problems can stick around for weeks or months. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 79986034 United Kingdom 02/02/2021 09:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Enhancement of Combined Umami and Salty Taste by Glutathione in the Human Tongue and Brain Tazuko K. Goto, Andy Wai Kan Yeung, Hiroki C. Tanabe, Yuki Ito, Han-Sung Jung, Yuzo Ninomiya Glutathione, a natural substance, acts on calcium receptors on the tongue and is known to enhance basic taste sensations. However, the effects of glutathione on brain activity associated with taste sensation on the tongue have not been determined under standardized taste delivery conditions. In this study, we investigated the sensory effect of glutathione on taste with no effect of the smell when glutathione added to a combined umami and salty taste stimulus. Twenty-six volunteers (12 women and 14 men; age 19–27 years) performed a sensory evaluation of taste of a solution of monosodium L -glutamate and sodium chloride, with and without glutathione. The addition of glutathione changed taste qualities and significantly increased taste intensity ratings under standardized taste delivery conditions ( P < 0.001). Functional magnetic resonance imaging showed that glutathione itself elicited significant activation in the left ventral insula. These results are the first to demonstrate the enhancing effect of glutathione as reflected by brain data while tasting an umami and salty mixture. |

Yeah, we're gonna have to have you come into the recycle/termination center for elimination. Your DNA has been compromised and we can't risk allowing that to escape into the human gene pool. All those infected will need to be eliminated. And yes, we could simply snip your balls off instead. But then you would be all angry and pissed off and full of revenge and we can't allow that either. So, say your goodbyes and report for eradication by noon tomorrow. And the same goes for the rest of you that have got the coovies and have been damaged too. Sorry, but I'm sure you can understand the necessity of your removal from existence. It's for the overall good of humanity, right? |

User ID: 79732909 United States 02/02/2021 09:39 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | About two months for me. First couple weeks were completely gone.. then it improved on a touch and go basis but only like 20%... just enough to piss me off. It's been almost a year, I caught it in February of 2020, and I have complete sense of taste and smell back but a lot of things don't taste right. Many things taste chemically now. I also smell this strawberry type of chemically smell often when it's not actually there. My wife caught it on October. She has ZERO taste and smell for almost 6 weeks. Still today, four months later, she still cannot smell things like smoke or if the kids need a diaper but she can taste. Bio-weapon for sure. It's destroying peoples senses. Some recover, some suffer permanent damage, others have no effects. I"m thankful this is all it did to me. Some never recover. And for the record, I've NEVER been afraid of this fucking thing. It was a rough respiratory infection for me. I had to prepare for travel in the Northeast in February, the coldest time of the year, and couldn't be outside for more than a couple minutes. My throat felt like razor blades and I had unbelievable fatigue but impending doom was never a sense I felt. I now know about a dozen people who've had it. One 83yr old, a 90yr old, people in their 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s. NO ONE HAS DIED. Fucking joke. Last Edited by TinfoilHatMan on 02/02/2021 09:43 PM |

It’s long been known, but newly weaponized for Covid. |
