I am sponsoring this petition on behalf of my partner who has lost her ability to smell and taste through the use of this product. I have seen the damage this loss has caused her, the depression and the loss of her sense of security. Think about all that you do with those two senses, how much pleasure derives from these abilities. And consider the loss for yourself, because you or a loved one could be next. Check out the numerous complaints on the internet. Please help me to show my support in the effort to stop this from occurring again. Thank you for your participation.
