What is causing my body odor?

Follow up:

Some gradual changes ive been making. Ive been trying to stay off junk food, processed food, refined, or anything that isnt "natural" but its taking a while to adjust especially since im underweight. Mostly ive been on fruits, a veggie smoothie with a veggie/fruiit powder, almond and nuts, whole grains, etc and taking supplements like Zinc (50mg), Chrolophyll (100mg  2 a day), 200B renewlife Probiotics (which then i plan to follow with the 80B ones and so on) and some pills for my gastritis. Ive also trying to drink more than 8 cups of water (sometimes i put some lemon in) a day but sometimes the clock goes by so fast i only get down to 4 or 6. And Ive been running (1.5-2.0) miles 3x a week, ive found that i only sweat when im nervous or running so there we go.

I havent noticed a change in odor, if anything i ate fish on monday and beans on tuesday and the odor seemed to be worse by wednesday. Im also using a natural deodorant (TOMS) and milk of magnesia or tea tree oil as a deodorant. 

I must say i am still very stressed that time goes by so fast but im still a work in progress. My bowel movements are slightly better, ive been having one elimination daily for the past 3 days, i would not call it "healthy" because they seem thin and long but i suppose something is something. Also, even tho im on this "healthy" diet i notice a lot of gas, im still bloated, and akward pain in the upper stomach at night. I guess its probably indigestion. I will buy some enzymes today.

Oh forgot to tell you, i will be enrolling at the gym soon so i can use the sauna. Hopefully all this will be over and then ill be able to recuperate the weight ill be losing. 

Well just wantd to let you know my progress and if you can comment on my procedures ill be so happy to hear what you have to say.

Dear Brenda,

your assistant Jemma send me an email saying that you told her to get in contact with me because she emailed a really good doctor and she send me this tips to follow :

• n the short run I would tell her she needs to be eat lots of organic vegetables (much of which can be in a smoothie)  you need a Vitamix or Blendtech, and you can sweeten with stevia or perhaps purchase some Greens First from a practitioner. It is organic green veg. powders and stevia that really make a bitter veg smoothie taste good.
• Need to make sure she is drinking enough water, and taking enough magnesium, might add slow increasing amounts of Mag citrate to Cleansemore to be sure she is having good elimination each day.
• Would consider colon hydrotherapy.  Lillian Hernandez in Hallandale is quite good.
• She should begin exercising if not doing so. You might ask how much and what is she doing.
• Sauna to promote sweating is very important Infrared is best. 
• Needs more probiotics probably our 200B and maybe even add 80B high in Bifidobacteria.
• Stay off processed grains, could have some millet, quinoa, sprouted buckwheat.
• If they can afford it, there are a couple of women I know who can teach her how to do an vegan diet at least 80-90%.
• The only  practitioner I know in  who is regular/wholistic MD that I would consider is Nancy Eckland
• She probably needs to also be on CandiGone, Intestinew, Fish Oil, digestive enzymes, and certainly extra fiber, and at least 2-3 quarts of high quality water/day.
• There is a restaurant called Life Gourmet  305-856-6767 in Coral Gables.  Great Food, sells a high quality water cheap, and the owner John Schott maybe very helpful to her.  If she ate mostly his food for a week she may see a difference.

First off, I went ahead and bought the Greens first from Amazon does it matter if i use a normal blender? The vitamix and the other one are too expensive for me. Also, i drink a lot of filtered water and Dasani, is that ok? The doctor also reccomended CandiGone and Intestinew, which should i use first and for how long? If i do not have Candida and take the Candigone will this be a trouble for me?

Again, Im sorry to be such a bother! But i want to do things right.

A follow up on my situation, i went to the gastroenterologist/internal med and he told me it is almost impossible for me tohave candida but that he will test up And for a bacteria called H Pylori or something. I have an endoscopy next week i will let you know of my progress. 

Thank you so much and Jemma for all your help.

Dr Watson,

I do appreciate all your help, thanks again. By the way, I did do a yeast infection test i bought from Walgreens, and my PH is 4.5. But what doctor would you recommend i should see anyway? 

Dr watson

i have to admit i havent been having a healthy diet and my bowels have stopped. I wanted to ask you if there is anything i should NOT eat before i begin my cleansing and what can i eat during it, which by the way i have decided to buy the First Cleanse to start but i think it will take a few months of cleansing to be healthy again. Would that affect my health in the long run? Also, i have begun taking Renewlife 30 billion Probiotics, Chlorophyllin which i have read is good for cleansing, and i am thinking of Zinc supplement. Any recomendations?

Sarah.

If i do the cleansing and start having at least one bowel movement a day, when will i start seeing a change in odor? I do appreciate all your help ms watson

dr watson

i went to my gnc and bought the cleansemore, but i couldnt find anything else that you reccomended to me so i bought the organic bowel cleaner or something. As soon as i got home  i mixed orange juice with the bowel cleaner and had my first bowel movement in less than 15 minutes! It was small and a little fat though, is that ok?  I wanted to know how do i mix these two cleaners and how to use them like for how long and that.

i am** but this began around my late ** thank you so much for answering!! i will start getting the constipation fixed as soon as i start having at least one bowel movement a day i will post you again!! you are such a nice doctor to take your time to answer patients, no one does this.

Hi brenda! Well let me start by explaining this weird event. I started having body odor about 3 years ago, its been on and off constantly though. OF course, i cant smell it, but for comments i have heard its something onion-ish, and very strong, but i doubt it could fill a room.

At first i thought ok im not showering enough, so i started doing that. I changed deodorants too. Nothing. I am EXTREMELY hygenic i even wear foot deodorant and my foot dont smell, AT ALL. I used antibacterial soap and take 1-2 showers a day. About a year ago i started adding more fruits and water to my diet and all, i try to stay away as much as possible from meat, onions, junk food, i am mostly all organic and natural (which i have lost A LOT of weight for, my mom is worried). It is weird that this has started at the time i was taking Yazmin but when the odor started i thought that could have been the cause so i went off them, and nothing.

Sometimes i would wear a men's T shirt (which is cotton) and no smell at all, in the mornings i didnt seem to smell either. And sometimes if i dont think about it, its like its not there, or people are just used to it and dont do faces or comments.

I had my hormones checked and they are perfectly fine. My gynecologist says im fine, my GP says im fine, no defency whatsoever, i seem very healthy.  I have been to many GP's, they say its all in my head. i dont have an anxiety problem but if I did this definetly takes the toll. I want to feel normal again, before this started i would never smell bad.  I KNOW i am not imagining this, I just am obssessed about this because i cant control it.

But now the odor just seems to get worse. Before i could shower and go around in the men's T shirt and wouldnt smell, now i do, about 40 mins after showering. Lately ive read about Fish odor syndrome which makes you smell like fish in the most extreme cases, i dont think i have this for this is genetic, but i will get tested just for the peace of mind. Did i mention i am constipated? Very little bowel movements sometimes i can go for days without any bowel movement. Also, i dont sweat a lot, only when im under stress (which is most of the time since most of the time i am stressing over if i smell or not) .

I would appreciate your answer, cant wait to read what you have to say. Thanks for taking the time.

Sarah.
