1. Castor Oil
Castor oil is one of the best home remedies for loss of smell and taste. It has antimicrobial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, which help keep the nasal passages clear.
- Warm some castor oil in a microwave for a few seconds.
- Put 1 drop of the warm oil in each nostril.
- Do this twice daily, in the morning and before going to bed.
- Repeat until you regain your sense of smell and taste.
2. Garlic
Garlic also helps restore the senses of smell and taste. It helps clear nasal congestion and open up blocked nasal passages, in turn improving your smelling power.
- Chop 2 or 3 garlic cloves.
- Put them in 1 cup of water and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes.
- Strain and drink while it is still warm.
- Repeat 2 or 3 times a day.
