Were the Victorians the first sniffers?

Victorian Sniffer

Did you know that the Victorian era brought along the use of smelling salts as a non-invasive medical treatment.  In fact, police officers and emergency workers carried smelling salts to revive those prone to fainting.

The Romans used them for staying alert, because sniffing smelling salts causes a rapid reaction, as the ammonia gas irritates the nostril membranes and lungs.

This in turn triggers a sharp inhalation reflex, bringing in more air and therefore more oxygen.

If a person passes out, they may lose consciousness due to limited blood flow to the brain.

So, by sniffing smelling salts this can raise your heart rate, blood pressure and oxygen levels, increasing brain activity and reactivating the sympathetic nervous system. In some sports, there is a belief that sniffing smelling salts will up your adrenaline levels, though manufacturers are quick to point out, that they are only intended to revive those who have fainted.

It is hard to believe that the manufacturers of the “little brown bottle”, which we all knew and loved, would approve of their product being associated with performance enhancement and there may be cause for concern, that some “smelling salts” on today’s market may contain questionable ingredients.
