Default Loss of sense of smell early indicator of Alzheimers

Alzheimer's test: Can you smell peanut butter?

This is true. Loss of sense of smell was one of the first symptoms my mom had. The forgetfulness came much later.............

She could not smell anything decades before she was diagnosed with Alzheimers in her early 80's...........passing away at age 91.

No one paid much attention to her when she would mention her loss of smell at age 60 on..........
