There isn't a "window of opportunity" per se, they said it could be pretty effective no matter when you start. but it may help it come back even faster earlier on

I've been "over" COVID for 3 weeks now (testing negative) and I'm still waiting for my sense of smell/taste to return to full power. They've come back quite a bit, but sweet things are only a fraction as sweet as they used to be, smells aren't nearly as strong, I can't register the taste of coffee, and "tangy" flavors are still gone. (Including like, sour-tangy, sharp cheese tangy, and even saltiness).

Food is like, only half as satisfying as it used to be. I bought one of these 'smell therapy' kits just in case it helps. My senses have been slowly getting better, but I don't know if it's just the natural process or if the kit has made a difference.

I lost my smell/taste for about a week and now they’re back 100%. A few things that helped me:

1- I bought this olfactory training kit from Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0924XXLWB?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share). It comes with instructions on how to use them too. I do feel that it helped me recover my smell faster. Some swear by them, some don’t, but it wouldn’t hurt to try. You can also do this with perfume/cologne.

2- As for food, it’s super tricky because you absolutely CANNOT bring yourself to taste anything correctly or even at all. High sodium/spice/acidic foods were easier to sense. I ate really spicy ramen, oranges, and pickles. Lots of lemon and honey too. It really depends on what you’ve lost though. One friend of mine couldn’t even sense acid. You really just need to experiment.

Good luck, I know it sucks

I posted this for someone else -

My husband's home health care nurse had covid and lost her sense of smell for over 6 months. She got this and after using it as directed, she started getting her smell back in 2 weeks and was back to 100% within a month.

Oh, no. My husband's home health care nurse had covid and lost her sense of smell for over 6 months. She got this and after using it as directed, she started getting her smell back in 2 weeks and was back to 100% within a month.

Here is the one my husband's home health care nurse used.

Too soon to say if it works, but I've been using a smell training kit. Food is super unappealing to me right now unless it's very sweet, salty, or sour

My husband had cancer and his home health care nurse had had corona about 6 months earlier and lost her sense of smell/taste. She bought a kit like this oneand used it for 2 weeks and she was able to slowly start smelling things again. Read the reviews and see if this might help you. She was beside herself over not being able to smell anything - this worked for her. https://smile.amazon.com/Essential-Olfactory-Regeneration-Eucalyptus-Guidebook/dp/B0924XXLWB/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_1?crid=3HF5A56YPXMDV&keywords=covid+smell+training+kit&qid=1647251754&sprefix=covid+sm%2Caps%2C74&sr=8-1-fkmr1

Some people have forced themselves to eat trigger foods and then claimed that the "training" helped their recovery. Others have said that they avoided trigger foods like the plague and have recovered just the same. It's really unclear.

Doctors do recommend smell training though. You get a kit like this and smell the smells for 30 seconds each, twice daily, while thinking about how they're supposed to smell and trying to to remember the correct smell: https://www.amazon.com/Essential-Olfactory-Regeneration-Eucalyptus-Guidebook/dp/B0924XXLWB

The studies on smell training and olfactory recovery supposedly showed some evidence that it does help, but it wasn't definitive due to not having enough participants, or something like that.

I do the smell sticks daily though. They smell quite good for me, for some reason, and it's nice to just have something nice to smell.
