Covid may be causing children to become fussy eaters, experts suggest
18.01.2022 - 15:01 / dailyrecord.co.uk
Children who have been infected with Covid may be turning into fussy eaters, according to experts.
The reason for this is parosmia - a disorder where people experience smell distortions that are often pretty unpleasant.
Parosmia tends to completely alter the way we smell things.
For example, chocolate may smell like petrol or citrus smells may not smell like rotten vegetables.
This means that the food children once enjoyed is now pretty disgusting to them.
Smell experts at the University of East Anglia and Fifth Sense, the charity for people affected by smell and taste disorders, say the disorder is hitting kids who have fought off the virus particularly hard.
In a bid to help, Fifth Sense and Carl Philpott, from UEA's Norwich Medical School, are launching guidance to help parents and healthcare professionals better recognise the disorder.
Prof Philpott, said: "Parosmia is thought to be a product of having less smell receptors working which leads to only being able to pick up some of the components of a smell mixture.
"We know that an estimated 250,000 adults in the UK have suffered parosmia as a result of a Covid infection.
"But in the last few months, particularly since Covid started sweeping through classrooms last September, we've become more and more aware that it's affecting children too.
"In many cases the condition is putting children off their food, and many may be finding it difficult to eat at all.
"It's something that until now hasn't really been recognised by medical professionals, who just think the kids are being difficult eaters without realising the underlying problem."
Prof Philpott added that he is seeing teenage patients with parosmia for the first time in his career.
