Based on your knowledge about the process of aging, **Amina is experiencing a normal decline in her sense of taste**.
As people age, it's common for their senses, including taste and smell, to decline, which can lead to changes in appetite and food enjoyment. Adding spices can help enhance flavor and make meals more enjoyable for individuals experiencing this decline.
