Huntington's Impairs Ability To Smell

Just a single sentence, but its mentioned in this article on Alzheimer's and the sense of smell. The quote:

Beverly J. Cowart, a psychologist who directs the Monell Chemical Senses Center in Philadelphia, said doctors will probably always need more than the scent test for diagnosis because the sense of smell is also impaired in Parkinson's and Huntington's disease and in old age in general.
