Canadian Perfumer Teaches How to Regain Sense of Smell and Taste After COVID With New Book WHY the NOSE Published by MY Nose Initiative Inc.

BRAMPTON, Ontario, August 27, 2021 (Newswire.com) - A recent study by J.R. Lechien, et al. (2021), suggests about 86% of people who have COVID-19 lose some or all of their ability to smell. An ongoing Virginia Commonwealth University study (Reiter, 2021) shows 43% of participants who lost their sense of smell or taste due to COVID feel depressed, with 87% of participants reporting reduced enjoyment of food. Evan Reiter, MD, medical director of the Smell and Taste Disorders Centre at VCU Health, says the health and safety concerns stemming from these responses give insights into the larger picture of long-term health impacts of COVID-19. WHY the NOSE? is a do-it-yourself book on using smell training to increase sense of smell and improve mental health.

Tracy Pepe's new e-book WHY the NOSE?, available for only $2.95, is a smell learning guide to help those improve their sense of smell and taste.  Tracy's book works with a 20-week program based on scientific research as well as her decades of expertise. Using herbs, spices, and widely available essential oils, this unique programme is based on techniques proven to help patients recover more quickly and completely.

WHY the NOSE?, was published as an e-book on August 20 and in print Fall 2021. It lays out a complete smell training program for one to follow at home. The author also offers smelling kits and online support through the website www.smellingpink.ca and social media.
