Once you get used to the smell, the sensor stops detecting it…’Smell Fatigue’ Phenomenon You may have been hit by the smell of cigarettes, sweat, or perfume from someone sitting next to you on the subway. The same goes for bad breath while talking to others. However, we are not aware of what kind of smell we are actually emitting. Everyone has their own specific smell. I just don’t recognize it. It’s easy to understand if you think regarding people who smoke and don’t know if they smell like cigarettes. How regarding the experience of spraying perfume a few times in the morning, feeling like the scent wasn’t there, and feeling ‘dull’ a few more times, but then getting on the elevator and seeing people wrinkle their noses? At some point, you get used to the smell of your own room or the smell of your car, so you may not even be able to recognize that smell. Why can’t you smell your own smell even though you sniff other people’s smells like a dog? After smelling something, our senses become dull…’smell fatigue’ phenomenon Of course, this does not mean that people cannot smell their own smell. You can immediately recognize the smell of sweat or clothes. However, over time, your sense of this specific smell becomes dull. Our brain works hard to read all the senses around us, but at some point it becomes insensitive to specific smells and becomes ‘odor blind.’ In other words, when a smell becomes too familiar, the brain feels tired and decides to stop detecting the sensor. This is called ‘odor fatigue’. The reason why you cannot smell your own body properly can be explained by the fact that the brain in charge of smell has already become accustomed to it and has stopped smelling. Dr. Hiroaki Matsunami, a molecular neurobiologist at Duke University in the U.S., said, “The same phenomenon occurs with all the smells we always encounter,” adding, “The cause of odor fatigue has not been completely identified, but it is related to human odor receptors and the brain’s response to odor. “It appears that there has been a change in the air freshener,” he said. In fact, a study showed that when people left air freshener in their rooms, following a few days they might not smell not only the specific smell of the air freshener but also the smell of the summer breeze. “It appears that the sense of smell rarely responds once more following smelling something,” said Dr. Pamela Dalton, a psychologist at the Monell Chemical Senses Center in the U.S. “This is because the receptors that normally respond to smells are turned off.” Explained. Dr. Dalton said, “This is a phenomenon that cannot be seen in sight or hearing. Even if the brain’s corresponding receptors adapt to sound or sight, the system generally recovers quickly. However, it takes 2 to 3 times to recover smell sensitivity.” “The fact that it takes regarding a week is very unique.” Nevertheless, the human nose still has approximately 400 different odor receptors and can detect 10 types of odors and more than a trillion odors. According to Dr. Rachel Hertz, a neuroscientist at Brown University in the United States, the ability to detect one’s own smell is It gets higher in certain situations. Each person has a unique body odor and can react sensitively to any changes in it. Because we are sensitive to our own body odor, we can sense the smell when there is a slight change. For example, on days when you sweat a lot, your own bad body odor sometimes stings your nose. The interesting thing is that if you suddenly smell your own smell, it is likely to be perceived as a much stronger smell to those around you. There is a way to detect your own smell. This means smelling clothes that have fallen off the body, or brushing your hair with clean hands and smelling the tips of your fingers. There are also breath tests, such as the classic hand test (place your hands together next to your face and nose and try to breathe). The easiest thing is to ask close family members or friends. ☞ Reference: American science media Livescience, IFLscience[관련기사]☞ “Peeing in the shower and skinship with athlete’s foot”… Are you worried regarding marrying a man like this? ☞ I added ‘this’ to green tea… and my belly fat ‘goes away’ with 2 cups a day ☞ “7 a.m. is the best time to do ‘that’ “… Wake up your biological clock ☞ How to prevent ‘grey hair’ from coming?… “If you run, aging comes slowly” (study) ☞ Bad lifestyle habits that damage kidneys and gain weight vs. what are good foods?
