Elderly who have trouble identifying odors face risk of dementia. A long-term study of nearly 3,000 older adults found that those who could not identify at least four out of five common odors were more than twice as likely as those with a normal sense of smell to develop dementia within five years. About 14 percent could name just three, 5 percent could identify only two, and 2 percent could name just one. One percent of the study subjects were not able to identify a single scent. Source 9m.

Elderly The Dementia

Dementia is a scourge and any research that helps us identify it and reverse it is a good thing. Although there is no history of this in my family, I have seen its effects on families. I'm all for this type of research.

Rather off topic, but...
On the plus side, with my Italian schnoz there never be an issue with my ability to smell.

Dementia In The Elderly

Stopping dementia at the nose with combination of rifampicin and resveratrol. Researchers have shown in mice models of Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal dementia, and dementia with Lewy bodies, that the intranasal administration of rifampicin and resveratrol in combination is safer and improves cognitive function more than rifampicin alone. The research results are expected to lead to the development of safe and effective nasal spray for the prevention of dementia. Source 5r.
