The Smell Test

Our 12-odorant test evaluates your ability to detect and identify various smells, utilizing methodologies rigorously validated in the 2013-2014 U.S. National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) for optimal accuracy, backed by extensive scientific research.

Did you know? Diminishing sense of smell serves as an early warning sign for diseases such as Parkinson’s, Dementia, COPD, and more.

Discover What Low Smell Can Reveal

  • Super Smelling (hyperosmia) has been linked with Lyme Disease, migraines, pregnancy, body fluid disturbances, hormone deficiency and certain medications.

  • Reduced smell is a common symptom of early-onset Alzheimer disease. It can occur even before other symptoms such as memory loss and difficulty thinking are apparent.

  • Reduced ability to smell, or hyposmia, is a common early symptom of Parkinson's disease.

  • Reduced ability to smell, or hyposmia, is a common symptom of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), affecting up to 70% of people with the disease.

  • Multiple Sclerosis advances commonly impacts the olfactory processing area of the brain resulting in a loss of the sense of smell.

  • Reduced ability to smell, or hyposmia, is a common symptom of diabetes. In fact, it is one of the most common symptoms of diabetes, affecting up to 70% of people with the disease.

  • Up to 80% of American survivors of Covid-19 are dealing with a reduced sense of smell without realizing it. There are things that can be done to help rehabilitate smell.

The Hearing Test

Comprehensive evaluation of your ability to identify pitch and volume sensitivity in pure and white noise settings. Results provide valuable insights that can be shared with your doctor. This science-backed test meets standards used by medical professionals.

Did you know? Hearing loss is highly prevalent, yet unrecognized and common in children affecting 1 of every 5 by age 18 and may significantly impact how we age.

Discover What Low Hearing Can Reveal

  • Noise-induced hearing loss can be caused by prolonged exposure to loud sounds, damaging the delicate sensory hair cells in the inner ear. It is preventable but not reversible.

  • Otitis Media, or middle ear infection, can cause temporary hearing loss. It occurs when the area behind the eardrum called the middle ear becomes inflamed and filled with fluid and is common after respiratory infections. Early treatment can prevent complications, including permanent hearing loss

  • Hyperacusis, often mistaken for super hearing, involves heightened sensitivity to low-volume sounds. Tesing can aid in recognizing the distinction and finding effective coping strategies.

  • Age-related hearing loss (presbycusis) develops gradually. Regular tests are crucial for monitoring changes, enabling early intervention to enhance quality of life and communication.

  • For otosclerosis, regular family-linked hearing checks or noticing changes is vital. Early detection and treatment can slow its impact on the stapes bone, causing progressive hearing loss.

  • Meniere's disease causes vertigo, tinnitus, and potential hearing loss. If you experience sudden hearing loss with dizziness or ringing, seek immediate medical help for early detection and symptom management.

Vision test

The Vision Test

Evaluate your capability to differentiate visual stimuli with our rigorous, self-administered test, providing insights into your daily visual experiences. Gain insights into your visual advantages or challenges to make more informed choices regarding your eye health.

Did you know? Regular eye exams help detect eye diseases in their early stages. Catching these conditions early is crucial for effective treatment and preventing vision loss.

Discover What Low Vision Can Reveal

  • A diminished sense of vision often serves as an early disease indicator, making prompt detection critical. Conditions like retinitis pigmentosa, uveitis, and trauma contribute to vision loss, emphasizing the importance of timely identification and intervention.

  • Combining eye exercises with regular eye exams provides a comprehensive approach to maintaining optimal eye health and preventing potential visual problems."

  • A decreased vision signals early disease, emphasizing the need for prompt detection. Conditions like retinitis pigmentosa, uveitis, and trauma stress the importance of timely intervention.

  • Hypertension damages eye blood vessels, leading to hypertensive retinopathy and vision issues. Regular eye exams detect early damage, crucial for preserving vision with high blood pressure

  • cataract, a clouding of the eye's lens, reduces vision with symptoms like faded colors and blurry vision. Aging and conditions like diabetes increase the risk.

  • While not as commonly associated with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) as other symptoms, vision issues can be an early sign of the disease. Inflammation damaging nerves in the brain and spinal cord can affect the optic nerve, leading to reduced vision or other eyesight changes.

Taste icon

The Taste Test

Explore your taste receptors, buds, and neural pathways with our 4-strip taste test. By testing your ability to detect three important compounds: PTC, sodium benzoate, and quinine, SuperSenses determines whether you're a Super Taster, Low Taster, or somewhere in between. This test is rigorously supported by robust scientific research ensuring reliable insights into your taste perception.

Did you know? Many “picky eaters” are considered Super Tasters, which only make up an estimated 25% of the population.

Discover What Low Taste Can Reveal

  • DIABETES: frequently causes reduced taste ability, known as hypogeusia, due to elevated blood sugar levels damaging taste bud nerves. Recognizing taste changes serves as an early warning sign of diabetes.

  • Early-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD): May manifest with a loss of taste as an initial symptom, even preceding memory loss or cognitive difficulties. Monitoring changes in taste could be an early warning sign, warranting prompt medical evaluation if taste decreases.

  • In numerous instances, Parkinson's disease initiates with a diminished sense of taste, preceding motor symptoms. Harmful substances linked to Parkinson's, like free radicals, may cause degeneration in taste-processing brain areas. 

  • Reduced taste ability is commonly reported in individuals with COPD, possibly due to medication use or the disease itself.

  • COVID-19 is associated with temporary and long-term taste changes, often persisting after recovery. Severity varies, and ongoing research is exploring the impacts of prolonged taste and smell loss in cases of 'Long COVID.'

  • Hypogeusia, or reduced taste ability, can be experienced by those with multiple sclerosis (MS). Linked to inflammation affecting brain nerves and taste buds, it can serve as an early warning sign of MS.

The touch test

The Touch Test

Gain insights into daily tactile experiences with the Two-Point Discriminator Disc, assessing touch detection ability. This friend-assisted, scientifically validated test measures tactile discrimination function, distinguishing between two points of pressure in four stages.

Did you know? A diminishing sense of touch is linked to health concerns such as stroke, peripheral neuropathy, fibromyalgia, and multiple sclerosis.

Discover What Low Touch Can Reveal

  • Peripheral neuropathy, often caused by diabetes or autoimmune diseases, reduces touch sensation. Early signs include numbness or tingling in the hands and feet. Regular tactile testing helps identify issues early for timely intervention.

  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome can lead to a reduced sense of touch, typically beginning with tingling or numbness in the fingers. This condition is often associated with repetitive hand motions, and early detection is key to preventing permanent damage.

  • Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition characterized by widespread pain and tactile sensitivity. The reduced ability to properly perceive and process touch signals can contribute to the pain experienced in fibromyalgia.

  • stroke can sometimes cause a reduced sense of touch due to the damage it causes in the brain's sensory processing areas. Early detection and treatment of stroke are crucial for minimizing its impacts and improving recovery outcomes.

  • Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a progressive autoimmune disease that can lead to a reduced sense of touch due to damage in the nerves that carry sensory information.

  • Raynaud's disease is a condition that causes some areas of your body – such as your fingers and toes – to feel numb and cold in response to cold temperatures or stress.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Your senses define your experience of the world. Companies like 23andMe offer genotype testing, which examines your genetic code, but it's not as crucial as sensory testing. Unlike genetic testing, which can provide insights into potential health risks, sensory testing focuses on evaluating how you actually experience the world around you. This assessment can be particularly beneficial in everyday life, as it enables you to identify and address sensory issues such as hearing loss or taste sensitivity. While genetic testing companies can give you an idea of your potential health risks, your senses are what truly define your experience of the world.

SuperSenses is not just about identifying deficits or disorders in individual senses. It's a comprehensive test that assesses all five senses and provides a holistic picture of an individual's sensory perception. The insights gained from this test go beyond clinical diagnoses and help people better understand their unique sensory abilities.

Our five senses, sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell, play a crucial role in shaping our experiences and perceptions of the world around us. But did you know that they can also help us better understand ourselves? Here are a few ways in which our senses can provide insights into our inner selves:

1. Taste: Our sense of taste can reveal a lot about our personality and our emotional state. For example, if you crave sweet foods, you might be seeking comfort or nurturing. If you prefer spicy foods, you might be seeking excitement or adventure. By paying attention to our cravings and preferences, we can gain insight into our emotional needs and how to fulfill them.

2. Smell: Our sense of smell is closely linked to our memories and emotions. Certain scents can trigger powerful memories and emotions, such as the smell of freshly baked cookies reminding us of happy childhood memories. By paying attention to the scents that evoke strong emotional reactions, we can gain insight into our past experiences and how they shape our present thoughts and behaviors.

3. Touch: Our sense of touch can help us better understand our physical and emotional boundaries. By becoming more aware of our physical sensations, we can gain insight into how our body responds to different stimuli, such as stress or relaxation. We can also use touch to connect with others and express our emotions, such as a hug to convey comfort or support.

4. Sight: Our sense of sight can reveal a lot about our inner thoughts and feelings. For example, our facial expressions and body language can convey emotions that we might not be aware of. By paying attention to our nonverbal cues and those of others, we can gain insight into our emotions and how we communicate with others.

5. Hearing: Our sense of hearing can help us better understand our internal dialogue and emotional state. By becoming more aware of the thoughts and emotions that arise in our mind, we can gain insight into our inner world and how it affects our behaviors and interactions with others.In summary, our five senses can provide valuable insights into our inner selves and help us better understand our emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. By paying attention to our sensory experiences, we can gain a deeper understanding of ourselves and improve our overall well-being.

SuperSenses is backed by real science and uses technology to analyze data and generate valuable insights. The test is designed to help people identify their unique sensory abilities and explore how they can develop them to enhance their experiences in the world. By gaining a better understanding of their sensory perception, individuals can make more informed choices about how they interact with the world around them.
