Last Thursday was the first day of Fall. Here are four scents we associate with this time of year that can actually have health benefits . . .
- Cinnamon. A recent study found it can improve your motor skills, memory, and attention span.
- Pumpkin. It’s an aphrodisiac for men. A study in 2014 found it worked on about 40% of guys when it was mixed with lavender.
- Apples. A study in 2008 found the smell of apples can help with minor headaches, and even relieve migraines for some people.
- Nutmeg. Studies have found that burning nutmeg incense can help you relax and fall asleep. And there’s also a compound in it that might block the enzyme that contributes to Alzheimer’s disease.
