Noam Sobel, PhD, explains how the loss of smell can be a very early indication of neurodegenerative disease. Please note that not every instance of loss of smell reflects broader nerve degeneration in the brain, but they are correlated and new diagnostic tools are starting to leverage that link.
Dr. Sobel also explains a new emerging theory of Alzheimer's, which is directly related to pathogen entry through the nose. Keep in mind that brain neurons extend into your nose. So this is not such an outrageous idea after all.
Noam Sobel, PhD, is a professor of neurobiology in the department of brain sciences at the Weizmann Institute of Science. Dr. Andrew Huberman is a tenured professor of neurobiology and ophthalmology at Stanford University School of Medicine and host of the Huberman Lab podcast.
