A member asked:
I can't smell or taste and never have. had meningitis as a 13 day old baby, think that may be why. have always had social issues. can i improve both?

See a neurologist: The social issues may be more easily tackled than the issues with your sense of taste and smell. The brain is a very plastic organ. Make sure you address the fixable stuff likr zinc deficiency and sinus problems too.
