Loss of taste
I'd like to pay for some advice about my sense of taste. It's gotten reduced over the last few years. I used to have amazing sense of taste. There must be something I can do to get it back, or is it just old age? I am very healthy, take no medicines at all, just a vitamin pill every day. People say I look at least 15 years younger than I am.
What kind of specialist.of yours can I ask about this? Is it ENT or maybe Internal specialist?
Thank you.
Ian

Hello Ian.
This is a rather peculiar symptom.
I would love to discuss this with you, and thereby, help you out.
A detailed talk between us is necessary to elicit your exact symptoms in terms of the progression, duration, etc.
I say this because my system of healing requires every minute detail or change to be recorded before treatment begins. Also, with Homoeopathy subjective symptoms (the patient's own words) are of grave importance.
I am sure I can help you out with Homoeopathy.
Please do consult with me.

Yes you are correct,with aging there is naturally loss os sense of taste.But to be on safer side kindly visit a Ent specialist just to rule out a nasal polyp or some other pathology.Also let me tell you that sense of smell and taste are closely related to each other.
