Whatever the sickness is, the first step is always to examine the body and treat it with rest, calm environment, and nutritious diet. The chemistry of the body needs to be corrected and restored back to its natural state. Many times we have acute situations due to injuries and illnesses. We have a well-developed medical system that uses proper operations and drugs to address those situations.

Once the acute situation is under control, the body is allowed to heal and strengthen with nutrition and physical exercise. The nutritious diet helps gradually replace the drugs that were used. It is important to exercise the senses of smell and taste with mindfulness, because the body uses them to find out what is good and nutritious.

Exercising the senses of smell and taste with mindfulness helps recover from physical sickness.

There are artificial imitations of smell and taste out there. One must guard against them.
