In the wake of COVID-19, almost 25% of the population exhibits an impairment of the olfactory system, with varying severity from total loss (anosmia) to partial loss (hyposmia) to deception in odor quality (e.g. parosmia, phantosmia). As smell is the dominant contributor to flavor perception, it’s no surprise that one of the leading causes of depression among those suffering from olfactory impairment is the loss of enjoyment and pleasure in eating. This portion of the population is largely left in the dark as to how to advocate for themselves and to improve their everyday experiences at the dining table.

Rediscovering Flavor: A Practical Guide for Smell Loss is the first practical handbook on olfaction to date that is designed for lay readers and scientists alike. It offers individuals with anosmia a resource for more deeply understanding their condition, as well as a wealth of recipes designed specifically for the reintroduction of multisensory pleasure into the eating experience. Readers will thus gain an understanding of the underlying processes behind how flavor is built, allowing them to develop an approach to enjoyment of food by recruiting all aspects of flavor apart from olfaction.

This volume also offers practical insights into topics such as how best to discuss your experience with a treating physician, and the potential benefits of a stay at a smell and taste clinic. A primer on treatments and protocols will further explore the concept of the unique plasticity of the olfactory system, and olfactory training (a clinically relevant treatment). Specific culinary reactions (e.g. Maillard reaction) and techniques that can be utilized to stimulate the flavor system will also be introduced.

Rediscovering Flavor: A Practical Guide for Smell Loss integrates the most recent science in olfactory research and flavor perception and presents cooking techniques and recipes offering the renewed possibility of experiencing the enjoyment of food, to those who miss it most.

Acerca del autor

Thomas Hummel, M.D.
Dr. Thomas Hummel is head of research in chemosensory systems at the Smell and Taste Clinic, Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Technische Universität Dresden, Germany. His work spans clinical and research efforts on olfactory and gustatory dysfunction, including neurodegenerative-related smell loss. He has played a key role in developing widely used olfactory function tests, such as Sniffin’ Sticks and taste strips. He received most of his education at the Departments of Pharmacology at the University of Erlangen-Nürnberg and the University of Iowa, and at the Smell and Taste Center, University of Pennsylvania. He also led the influential “Position Paper on Olfactory Dysfunction” in 2017. Before entering Medical School, he was running a restaurant in Amberg, Germany, for one and a half years, serving the second best Schnitzel in town!

Robert (Bob) Pellegrino, PhD, DSc
Dr. Bob Pellegrino is a postdoctoral researcher at the Monell Chemical Senses Center, specializing in smell perception and loss. With doctorates in Food Science and Medical Research, his work spans multisensory integration in eating, smell disorder diagnostics, and olfactory perception. He helped develop the widely used Scentinel diagnostic test and collaborates with the national Smell and Taste Center on cooking for those with smell loss. He also serves on the leadership team for the Global Consortium of Chemosensory Research (GCCR). He also consults for many beverage and food companies on product development and does food pop-ups around Knoxville, TN and Philadelphia, PA.

Alexander Wieck Fjaeldstad, M.D., PhD
Dr. Alexander Wieck Fjaeldstad is a physician and olfaction researcher working at the Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Goedstrup Regional Hospital, Denmark. He co-founded the Flavour Clinic, Denmark’s first clinic for taste and smell disorders, where he focuses on diagnosis and treatment. He is a co-founder of the Flavour Institute at Aarhus University. He is also a member of the Center for Eudaimonia and Human Flourishing at the University of Oxford. Since 2019, he has been running a project on cooking schools for patients with smell loss, where methods for regaining pleasure from eating and cooking despite smell loss was the main focus. The tested methods and recipes from this project have been added to this book. During medical school, he worked in a cocktail restaurant, where cocktails were paired with food to boost the sensory experience.

Instructions for revocation

Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods

Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)

Instructions for revocation

Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,

on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;

To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.

You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.

In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.

Consequences of the revocation

If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.

We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.

You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.

You bear the direct costs for returning the products.

You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.

Criteria for exclusion or expiry

The revocation right is not available for contracts

for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts. The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
for delivery of products if they have been mixed inseparably with other goods after the delivery, owing to their condition;
for delivery of sound or video recording or computer software in a sealed package if the seal has been removed after the delivery.
