The role of pain receptors in the main symptoms of COVID-19 and how diet can be a therapy

Francesco Amato, Erminia Gilda Morrone

It is estimated that 80% of SARS-CoV-2 patients have olfactory disturbances and many also have dysgeusia or ageusia (an interruption or loss of taste, respectively) or changes in chemesthesis, the ability to perceive irritants. Anosmia (loss of sense of smell) and dysgeusia have been reported as symptoms that seem to have a particular tendency to precede the onset of respiratory symptoms.
