Unexplained body Odor

Posted by unique30 @unique30, Dec 2, 2022

Hello everyone!

I really need help figuring out what’s going on with me. I have impeccable hygiene! But, I smell horrible at all times! Most common odor is of sweaty socks. What’s weird is that my feet don’t smell at all. I can smell the odor around my nose. The crease of my nose to be exact.

The odor would get worse depending on my diet. But, it doesn’t matter what I eat, I smell. The odor is very strong. I don’t consume dairy because the odor would get worse, and I get a fecal/poop/sewage odor.
I’m not sure if these odors are coming from my stomach. I had endoscopy done, perfect oral health, tonsils removed, tmau test was negative. I was positive for Sibo only. No matter what I do, I smell bad, musty. I take 2 showers a day, scrub, use antibacterial soaps etc, nothing helps.
I know is coming from inside of me. I constantly smell like cheese. I don’t have any parasites, fungus or anything else that could be possibly be causing this. I can’t take the embarrassment anymore. People don’t understand that is a health condition, not that I’m a dirty person. My hormones are fine, within range. I have notice that close to my ovulation the odor would decrease somewhat, and very rarely I get one good day where people don’t complaint about the smell. I have narrow it down to be close to my ovulation day. I really don’t know what else to do. I have visited, endocrinologist, ENTs, Gastros, functional doctors, dentists, Obgyns.

This post is quite old but I am experiencing the same problem for about 2 years. I’ve given up on doctors and I’ve been prescribed 17 different medications for the pain in my stomach and antibiotics for something I’ve never been diagnosed with. 2 colonoscopy’s and 2 endoscopy’s, countless other tests being done, doctors can’t/don’t care to help me with my problem. I’ve been suicidal several times in the past 2 years. I am severely depressed and insecure and my marriage is falling apart. I don’t know what to do anymore. I’ve spent hundreds of dollars trying supplements and supposed cures online. I have gone through 3 doctors and 4 separate specialists and therapy doesn’t help any

We are living the same life. You are not alone. You are not crazy. The odor is better when I barely eat food. I also take 2 chlorophyll pills now that help somewhat. If you ever figure this out please let me know!!

Body odor wasn't my issue, but it may surprise you that we are all harboring yeast which give off their waste. A cause for many health issues is the yeast living in our intestines. I developed multiple forms of eczema in middle age, yeast was never diagonosed by my oncologist or other doctors. Still I was suffering so I kept reading about ways to improve my health. I wanted a cure and not a treatment.
I came upon the book, The Yeast Connection Handbook by William Crook, Md. He wrote this book decades ago. It's a simple, fast read for the layperson in which he explains what this yeast waste is doing to our bodies and is causing various health issues and diseases.
Your body is clearly out of balance, the book can be bought second hand and is inexpensive on the internet.
Following his detox is challenging, but I did it and today 5 years later still avoid his #1 culprit, processed sugar. It's all explained in his book.

I end up with eczema after an organ transplant in 2000. A second transplant in 2017. The eczema cones and goes over the years. I was told to use a prescription cream when it pops up.

Could be a deficiency of Zinc.

If this is IBS, Irritable bowel syndrome, I once had this. I ate yogurt daily for about 6months and can eat with oat granola and any berries. I no longer have issues. I also took a shot of 1tble spoon of apple cider vinegar in Welch's berry juice or can use grape juice for 6 months. This cured my IBS.

Look up approved science supplements and see if they have anything for eczema. This company only puts out products that go through extensive test and have proven results of high percentage rates for a cure. I have had great results from they're supplements with nerve damage. I would not be working if weren't for them.

Try a holistic medicine doctor. It's sounds like a deficiency but not sure what it is. May be autoimmune problem. I'm thinking Zinc deficiency but ask a holistic doctor or nearest health store.
