Did you know that human beings can neither smell nor taste a substance that is not soluble. On a dry tongue, sugar has no taste. In a dry nose, the smell of a flower would not be noticed. Anything to be smelled must float in the air.
Anosmia is the inability to smell.
Ageusia is the inability to taste.

Are you sure? Ilan ba ang panglasa natin? Is it true that if you have colds you can't smell anything?
When you have a cold, you tend to get congested (a stuffed-up nose). When this happens, air stops flowing past the olfactory receptors, which means that odor compounds cannot reach them and your sense of smell will not work. So, when you have a cold, your sense of smell stops working. Your sense of taste, which arises from the stimulation of taste receptor cells is usually unaffected, but since you can't smell, the flavor of foods and beverages is definitely altered.

Ano naman ang ambrosia? Rhyme ang words sa anosmia at ageusia ha!
Thanks for posting comments.
Ambrosia?
If you recall your ancient Greek mythology, it is sometimes the food or sometimes the drink of gods and goddesses. But in Homer's poem, the drink is nectar, while ambrosia is considered the food of the gods.
Here in Saudi, the locals consider the dates as ambrosia. They say, eating dates heightens their libido ugghhhh!!! Try mo!
