AYURVEDA PERSPECTIVE ON LIMITED SENSE OF TASTE

Loss of taste and flavor makes it hard for you to choose the right foods for your body. Impaired taste can cause you to eat too little and lose weight, or it could make you eat too much and gain weight. Impaired taste can predispose you to using too much sugar or salt in an effort to make your food taste better. Your sense of taste and smell is very important for determining when food has spoiled. It can also help you detect foods you are allergic too. Loss of flavor can make you depressed; food is one of the ways we experience the zest of life. The human tongue has 2,000 - 8,000 taste buds, which are replaced every ten days. Taste buds are found on the tongue, roof of the mouth, and lining of the throat. As we age, we lose taste buds. Dry mouth can also cause a limited sense of taste.

Humans have taste buds for sweet, sour, salty, pungent, bitter, astringent, and umami. Aroma of food (flavor) is interpreted by the nose. Often, people who go to the doctor complaining of diminished taste are surprised to learn that loss of smell is the cause. When the nose is stuffed, the aroma of the food is blocked from the nose, making food taste bland. True loss of taste is rare - loss of smell is much more common.

Thousands of nerve endings, especially on the moist surfaces of the eyes, nose, mouth, and throat, help you to determine chemical properties of food, a kind of taste called "common chemical sense." These nerve endings help you interpret heat, cold, and texture. Together, all these sensations help your body develop a relationship with the food you are eating.

These nerve endings give rise to sensations such as the coolness of mint and the burning or irritation of chili peppers. Other specialized nerves give rise to the sensations of heat, cold, and texture. When we eat, the sensations from the five taste qualities, together with the sensations from the common chemical sense and the sensations of heat, cold, and texture, combine with a food's aroma to produce a perception of flavor. It is flavor that lets us know whether we are eating a pear or an apple.

Gustin is the common hormone responsible for growth and maintenance of all sense organs, including taste buds and olfactory bulbs. Gustin is called the salivary hormone because it is responsible for making the mouth water. Gustin is a zinc-metalloprotein, making zinc the primary trace metal related to physical sensation. All of the sense organs depend on adequate levels of zinc for growth and maintenance. Low zinc is directly related to low gustin, as well as poor sense of taste and smell. Many people with a limited sense of taste found that their tastes returned to normal after taking zinc supplements for less than a week.

A dry mouth diminishes your sense of taste. A lingering unpleasant taste in the mouth after eating can distort or diminish taste sensations. Too many sweets can diminish tongue sensitivity. Metallic silverware can distort taste. A burning sensation in the mouth can diminish sense of taste.

Ear infections, dental surgery, and chemotherapy can distort taste, as well as poor dental hygiene. Exposure to pesticides and pharmaceuticals can impair taste. Nerve degeneration such as in Parkinson's can cause loss of taste, as can the use of albuterol to treat asthma. Interestingly, anesthesia is often used to diagnose loss of taste, as often taste improves after dosage. The best way to improve taste is by increasing hunger.

HOW TO ADDRESS ISSUES IN STAGE OF DISEASE #3

LIMITED SENSE OF TASTE IS IN STAGE OF DISEASE #3 - ATTACKING TISSUE

If you have symptoms in this category it means that your imbalances are becoming stronger and weakening your body's resistance. Most people have a weakness in one or more organs. These areas of weakness are the 'weak link in the chain.' They are first to succumb when an imbalance reaches a tipping point. Repairing imbalances in this category often represent your last opportunity to prevent disease. At any moment, these imbalances could overwhelm weakened tissue and develop into a disease. You may feel pain or discomfort in the weakened area. At this stage you will need to support the weakened tissue with specialized foods and herbs for the weakened tissue.

HOW AYURVEDA WORKS

ARE YOU WONDERING HOW AYURVEDA CAN HELP YOU?

WHY IS AYURVEDA THE RIGHT SOLUTION?

Ayurveda strengthens the body while opposing disorders. It takes a holistic, systemic approach that looks at the whole body. Ayurveda shows how to interpret signs and symptoms of imbalance, and how to address them using diet, lifestyle adjustments, and herbs. It shows a person how to optimize their health on a continual basis. You can't take the doctor home with you, but you can take Ayurveda home with you. Ayurveda is the most advanced and easy to use home system for self healing.

HOW DOES AYURVEDA WORK?

Ayurveda starts by identifying your body type, which identifies certain tendencies in your body to get sick (as well as identifying your strengths). It uses body type to determine the likely root causes of your disorders. Next, Ayurveda analyzes the nature of your disorder. It fits all your signs and symptoms into a pattern, expressed as a combination of biocharacteristics (gunas). For example, you may have a heat disorder, a cold disorder, or an oily disorder, etc. This simple categorical approach shows you how to correct systemic imbalances and strengthen your body as a whole.

On Joyful Belly, we've created an extensive categorization of food so you can easily match food to your imbalanced biocharacteristics. By eating an optimal diet that balances your biocharacteristics, your whole body is strengthened and the conditions that created the disorder are removed. Once the root causes of the disease are removed, the disease lessens in strength or disappears altogether. Additional remedies - such as herbs and lifestyle practices - focused on the specific disorder, can greatly enhance your healing.
